Thanks to this hack, it has never been easier to keep these spoons looking and smelling their freshest at all times. You may have already seen a recent TikTok video about this exact topic.
The clip recommends boiling the spoons in hot water as a means of keeping them clean. This seems sensible enough but the experts are split on the matter. The wood can crack, warp or split, causing more damage over the long haul. If the spoon has been treated with wax or oil, this can also cause water to absorb during the boiling process.
In order to avoid the usual pitfalls, you can boil your spoon in a larger pot of water. This keeps the spoon from not having enough space to move around freely.
To keep damage risks minimal, only allow the spoon to remain in the pot for 5 minutes. As soon as the process is complete, remove the spoon from the pot and give it the chance to cool off completely. Dry it off with a clean towel and you are good to go. Check out the video below:
You can also hand wash the spoon with warm water and use a vinegar solution in order to keep it fully disinfected. For best results, create a solution that is equal parts white vinegar and water. Oil should be applied regularly as well and baking soda works wonder for the truly stubborn stains.
