Viral Hack Shares How to Clean Wooden Kitchen Spoons (Page 2 ) | April 25, 2025

Thanks to a viral TikTok hack, it has never been easier to keep wooden spoons looking and smelling fresh. You may have already seen the video on this topic.

The clip recommends boiling the spoons in hot water to keep them clean. This seems sensible, but experts are divided. The heat may cause the wood to crack, warp, or split, potentially leading to more damage over time. Additionally, if the spoon has been treated with wax or oil, water can be absorbed during the boiling process.

To avoid damage, boil your spoon in a larger pot of water, allowing enough space for the spoon to move around freely. To minimize risks, leave the spoon in the pot for no more than 5 minutes. Afterward, remove the spoon and let it cool completely. Dry it off with a clean towel, and it’s good to go.

Alternatively, you can hand wash the spoon with warm water and use a vinegar solution to disinfect it. For best results, create a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water. Regularly oil your spoon, and for stubborn stains, baking soda works wonders.
