Quick fix for blender, mincer, processor blades

If you are in a pickle over cleaning sticky dampened blades with pieces of food stuck in hard-to-reach corners of the blades on a kitchen appliance, this old-fashioned remedy might be just the answer you're looking for.

Steps

1. Make sure that the blades are moist - this method is for removing moist particles.
2. Run a piece or two of dried bread through the blades. Stale pieces at the end of the loaf are excellent for this purpose.
3. Dispose of the crumbs into your compost pile. Check the blades - they should be nicely cleaned of any sticking pieces, making washing them a total breeze!

Materials

• Stale or dry bread
• Blades (blender, grinder, processor etc.)
