Ignorance can be bliss, but thanks to all of those TikTok cleaning videos (#CleanTok, anyone?
Its seriously disgusting, but its obviously pretty satisfying, too, in the same waylaundry strippingis.
Dishwashers emit extreme heat when drying that can warp the wood.
If extreme temperatures harm wood, then why are people suggesting to place spoons in boiling water on TikTok?
Instead,experts recommend hand-washing your wooden spoonswith a mild soap and warm water.
That’s because chemical soaps can break down the material of the spoon.
Allow your spoons to air dry.
What Does Boiling Wooden Spoons Do?
Because wood is porous, it absorbs a lot more of thegrease and food particlesyoure cooking with over time.
Have you ever washed your wooden utensils after cooking and they still smell like onion?
That’s because the wood has absorbed the strong odor.
If you prefer to still boil them, do it infrequently to extend the life of your spoons.
