1) Let Copper Items Shine Like New
For info. about knee replacement, be free to view my blog-
To
keep your copper kettles and the like sparkling, mix some salt with
vinegar and flour (and some optional lemon juice) and rub the surface of
the item.
2) Keep Oil from Spitting Out
Once
you've heated up your cooking oil, add a little salt. By doing so, you
will limit the amount of splashing and splattering, once you've added
your fish or meat to the pan.
3) Make Candles Non-Drip
Did
you know that you can actually prevent candle wax from dripping? Salt
can really help you do so. Simply soak your candle in a concentrated
salt solution overnight. Then, once the candle has thoroughly dried out,
light it. Easy.
4) Keep Ants Away
5) Keep Sliced Fruit and Veg from Browning
for crochet designs, my blog, those who like a particular design are free to mail me
To
keep ants from infesting your house and garden, make a 1:4 ratio salt
solution and pour it into a spray bottle. Spray where you like to
prevent them from ever wanting to come back again.
5) Keep Sliced Fruit and Veg from Browning
To keep any chopped fruit or veg from turning brown, simply place them in a bowl or pan filled with salt water.
6) Rid Your Hands of Onion Smell
It
may seem that you can never get the strong smell of garlic and onions
from your hands, after chopping and handling them, but it's actually no
trouble at all, if only you know what to do. First, you need to wet your
hands with water, then give them a thorough rubbing over with table
salt. Now rinse. Done.
7) Produce a Natural Home-Made Air Freshener
Whether
you use some orange peel or a normal bowl, to make air freshener all
you need is 1/2 to 1 cup of salt mixed with 20 or 30 drops of your
chosen essential oil (or use rose petals). Now you can have a naturally
wonderful smelling room.
8) Put Kitchen Fires Out Properly
If
you are cooking a particularly greasy meal, you really want to keep a
large container of salt nearby. Grease fires can easily get out of
control, but, luckily, all you need to do is pour salt onto the flames
to starve them of oxygen and put them out instantly.
9) Maintain a Clean Sink
Make
a paste with lemon juice and salt and use it to wipe your sink
with. Chemical cleaners can cost a lot of money, and they don't do
nearly as good a job of cleaning stainless steel sinks as this hot tip
does.
