The 'correct' way to clean wooden spoons safely and remove food build-up

Wooden spoons are one of those kitchen items that you probably don't think too much about deep-cleaning, often just giving them a scrub under the tap once you're finished cooking. But they need a bit of extra care thanks to the absorbent material that can harbour food debris, dirt and grime if they aren't properly cleaned every once in a while.

This can make them unsafe for cooking with, so a cleaning guru on TikTok has revealed how you can make them as good as new again. However, she's warned that you could see some pretty "gross" results.

The Mirror reports that Lulaboo Jenkins, who posts on the video app as @lulabookjenkins, made a short clip in response to @kimmyskreations, who shared a clip submerging her dirty wooden spoons into a pot of boiling water.
