• To clean oil from a deep fryer, and to get rid of bad odours, first add a handful of fresh parsley and heat it in the deep-fryer oil (for only 5 seconds). Take out the basket and throw away the parsley. Now you can see that the oil is clean and odour-free.
  
  
• To make wooden cutlery like new, immerse them in a solution made of one litre of water and six spoonfuls of hydrogen peroxide, or you can use a few drops of bleach instead. Leave the cutlery immersed for a whole day. The next day, remove them and rinse them thoroughly in tap water.
  
  
• To unclog pipes you have three options: Pour a little bit of baking soda in hot water down the drain, and leave it to work for about half an hour. Pour coffee grounds down the drain, and leave them to work for about an hour. Pour a glass of your favourite soft drink down the drain, and leave it to work for about half an hour. Having applied one of these products, and leaving it to work for the suggested time, turn the water on full blast to unclog the pipes.
