Cleaning the Kimchi Containers
•
Containers and bins can easily become dirty from
spilled food. Remove them occasionally and rinse
them out to avoid odors.
•
Before cleaning the container lids, remove the
rubber packing from inside the lid. Remember to
replace the rubber packing once the lids are clean.
•
Do not clean the containers and lids in water hotter
than 122°F (50°C).
•
Gently clean the containers with a soft sponge to
avoid scratching the surface.
•
Kimchi containers may emit a plastic odor when you
first use them, so clean them using a soft sponge
and neutral detergent.
•
You can remove the smell from the kimchi container
by placing finely chopped green leaves in, then
cover it with a lid and leave it for around a day. Then
leave rice rinse water in it for about 30 minutes and
wipe the container clean.
•
When used for a long period of time, the distinct
color and odor of kimchi can permeate the
container.
CAUTION
•
Do not wash the lid of the kimchi container using
a dishwasher or dryer.
Hand-wash only.
