The grill in any restaurant must be kept clean and hygienic, taking into account that it is in direct contact with the food and is used very frequently. But this is sometimes made more difficult by the encrusted grease.
Homemade methods to clean the iron
- Place ice cubes on the griddle to create a thermal shock, which will make the grease come off more easily. With the help of a special scraper, you can remove any grease and food residue, being careful not to crack the griddle.
- Pumice stone: This is an option, but you run the risk of damaging the surface of the iron easily. It is not suitable for frequent use.
- Salt: It is a great ally in the kitchen, and not only when preparing the most delicious meals. If we mix it with water, it can help us degrease and make the ingredients that are stuck to the grill disappear more easily. Another valid option is to rinse with lemon or vinegar, which helps us achieve a brighter result.
Industrial griddles, which are the ones usually used in restaurants, need care after each service and, although there are many methods and home remedies to clean them, the best option is a professional product, specifically designed for cleaning griddles.
