See Through the Strainer

Posted under Kitchen by Shue

I am one of those who do not like drinking tea made using tea bags. I prefer to make it by boiling tea leaves, water and sugar together in a pot. The side effect of this procedure is a stained metal strainer that I use after the tea has boiled.

For cleaning this strainer that gets blocked after a period of use, I put it in boiling water to which some detergent has been added. I let it remain for some time. Then I rub it with a worn out toothbrush and the strainer is back to its original clean form!
