How to Clean a Blender in 30 Seconds (No Scrubbing)
Cleaning a blender is a pain, especially when there's stuck-on food inside. I used to spend 10 minutes scrubbing my blender after every use, but then I found this amazing trick that cleans it in 30 seconds without any scrubbing. I use it every time now!
Step-by-Step Guide
- Fill the blender about halfway with warm water.
- Add a drop of dish soap.
- Put the lid on the blender.
- Turn the blender on high for 30 seconds.
- Pour out the soapy water and rinse the blender with clean water.
That's it! Your blender will be spotless.
For Really Stuck-On Food
If you have really stuck-on food that won't come off with just soap and water, add a handful of ice cubes to the blender along with the soap and water. The ice cubes will act as an abrasive and scrub the inside of the blender.
How to Clean the Blender Base
To clean the blender base, just wipe it with a damp cloth. Never submerge the blender base in water – it will damage the motor.
Pro Tip
Clean your blender immediately after using it. The longer food sits in the blender, the harder it will be to clean.
