Cleaning your kitchen is about more than just the countertops and floors. Your cabinets, the battlefields for grease and food spills, also deserve some attention. Over time, grease can build up and make your kitchen feel grimy and unkempt. But fear not! There’s a simple and efficient way to combat this greasy buildup and restore the shine to your kitchen cabinets.
Dish Soap and White Vinegar: A Dynamic Duo
To clean your cabinets, you’ll need:
- 2 tablespoons of organic dish soap
- 500 ml (about 2 cups) of hot water
- 250 ml (about 1 cup) of white vinegar
Here’s what you need to do:
- Combine the dish soap, hot water, and white vinegar in a bowl or bucket.
- Dip a sponge or microfiber cloth into the solution, wring out the excess liquid.
- Gently scrub the cabinet surfaces with the soaked sponge or cloth.
- For corners and crevices, consider using an old toothbrush for detailed cleaning.
- Rinse the cabinets with a clean, damp sponge or cloth.
- Dry immediately with a fresh microfiber cloth to prevent water marks.
This method works wonders for painted or laminate cabinets. It provides a grease-free finish without the need for harsh chemicals.
