Do you hate trying to clean every last bit of food residue out of the bottom of your blender?
As you probably know, the chopping blades make it extremely difficult and dangerous to fully clean a blender’s pitcher.
Well, here’s an extremely simple (and completely safe) solution…
1 – Remove the pitcher from the blender and fill it about 1/3 of the way full with hot water from your kitchen sink.
2 – Squirt a small amount of dish-washing liquid into the pitcher.
3 – Place the pitcher back onto the blender and run it at max speed for several seconds.
4 – Remove the pitcher and rinse it with hot water from the kitchen sink.
5 – Place the pitcher into the dish drainer to dry.
That’s it. You’re done.
You now have a completely clean blender with zero scrubbing (and without any nasty cuts on your fingers)!
Pretty simple, right?
Note: This needs to be done immediately after you finish using the blender in order to prevent food residue from drying out and sticking to the inside of the pitcher. It only takes a few seconds but it can save you lots of work in the future.
