Did the wine turn into vinegar or don’t you know where to put the remnants of a drink that didn’t taste like? Do not rush to pour it. There are several useful ways to use wine in the household.
Instruction manual
1
Dye for fabric. If you ever spilled red wine on clothes or a tablecloth, then you know how well this color holds. For dyeing fabrics, you can use any red wine. Color can range from pale pink to dark purple or even gray. Bring the wine to a boil in a saucepan, put the cloth there and, stirring with a wooden spatula, keep on fire for 10 minutes. Allow to cool. Then rinse well with a cloth.
2
Skin care. The wine contains antioxidants that fight skin aging. Cindy Crawford recommends pouring a glass of red wine into a bath of warm water and immersing in it for half an hour. This bath soothes nerves and improves blood circulation. In India, wine is used in spa facial treatments to soften and rejuvenate the skin.
3
Ice. Pour the remaining wine into the ice tray and place in the freezer. Such pieces of ice can be added to soups, stews, sauces to give an unusual flavor to the dish.
4
Disinfection. Wine can be used to disinfect fruits and vegetables. The components contained in the wine can kill pathogens such as salmonella and E. coli. Dry white wine can also clean any kitchen surface except granite.
5
Detergent. Spoiled white wine can wash dirty windows. Add a few tablespoons of wine to the spray bottle with water, apply to glass and mirrors and wipe with a newspaper.
6
Fly trap. If you are tortured by flies in the kitchen, then pour a little red wine into the glass and cover it with a tight plastic wrap. Make some small holes in the film so that the flies can fly into them, but cannot fly back.
7
Stain remover. Pour the remnants of white wine onto grease and oil stains - alcohol and acid in the wine will remove them. Also red wine stains can be removed with white wine. After this, the fabric needs to be washed with cold water.
8
The remedy for bruises. An old folk remedy recommends soaking a piece of bread in wine, and then attaching it to a bruise. The wine is rich in flavonoids, which have a calming effect on inflamed tissue.
9
Marinade. Not only does red wine make meat tastier, it also reduces the carcinogens in it. So, marinating meat in red wine for 6 hours can reduce carcinogens by 90 percent.
