How Can You Remove Curry Stains from Bamboo Utensils?

[akrebecca]

One of my hosts used her new bamboo utensils to cook some food with curry. The curry has stained the spoon and the host asked what she could do to remove the stain. I suggested baking soda. Any one else have any suggestions?

I would suggest soaking it in soapy water. The BB spoons can go in the DW. I have found that when they or the scrapers have stained after using and washing them a few times the stain fades and goes away. I would think that would happen with curry stain too.

...but it's a kitchen use spoon anyway so what difference does it make really? It's not like she's using it to serve her guests or eating off the spoon.

That was my thought too...but for her, it is more of a "My spoons are brand new and now they are stained." I did explain that with use the stains should go away. I also suggested using a baking soda paste & letting it sit.

It does say in the product info with the bamboo products, that curry dishes will stain! Do you think she missed reading it?

The tumeric in the curry will stain anything it touches!!

one of mine is stained with curry too - I think it just gives it character! Kind of like our seasoned stones!

I know I missed it! I will let her know that in the product info it does state that. We'll see how it goes!

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about the curry stain on your bamboo utensils. As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have a few suggestions that may help remove the stain. First, try using a mixture of equal parts baking soda and water to make a paste. Gently rub the paste onto the stained area and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing off with warm water. You can also try using a mixture of white vinegar and water in the same way.Another option is to try using a dish soap with a degreasing agent, such as Dawn dish soap. Apply a small amount to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing off.If the stain persists, you can also try using a small amount of bleach diluted with water. However, be sure to test this on a small, inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't damage the bamboo.I hope one of these suggestions helps remove the curry stain from your bamboo utensils. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Happy cooking!
