Would You Use It?
Would you bring this retro tool back into your kitchen? Or is it best left in the past?
Either way, one thing’s for sure — the butter curler is a tiny reminder of how creative kitchens used to be.
FAQs
Q: Is a butter curler still useful today?
Yes! It’s great for butter, cheese, and even soft chocolate shavings for desserts.
Q: Where can I buy one?
Vintage stores, eBay, and even some specialty kitchenware shops still carry them.
Q: Does it work with margarine or only real butter?
It works best with firm butter, but can be used on any chilled spread.
- Sprinkle the salt evenly into the toilet bowl, focusing on stained areas.
- Add the baking soda and let the fizzing begin.
- For extra cleaning power, pour in the vinegar (optional).
- Let the mixture sit for 15–20 minutes.
- Scrub with the toilet brush, then flush.
Repeat once a week or as needed to keep your toilet bowl fresh and clean.
Extra Tips
- For really tough stains, leave the mixture overnight before scrubbing.
- Add a few drops of essential oil (like lemon or tea tree) for a fresh scent.
- This method is safe for septic tanks too!
FAQs
Q: Can I use this method on colored toilet bowls?
Yes! It’s gentle enough for most surfaces, but always test a small area first.
Q: Is vinegar necessary?
Not at all. Vinegar helps boost cleaning power but baking soda and salt work well on their own too.
