what is the best way to clean a deli slicer?
someone here must work in a deli .. what do you use to clean the things?
Most machines only have 2 parts that will dissasemble easily..
the blade guard (round and flat, lays ontop of the blade) and the meat guide (holds the meat down and guides it over the blade)
turn the machine off and unplug it
take off the guard and the guide and wash them in mild soapy water, rinse well and let them air dry
use clean water (no soap) to wash the entire machine...hold a rag under the blade and rotate it with your hand from the top to get all that is clinging to the blade
make sure to clean any crevices where meat has a chance to hide
wipe down with a diluted bleach solution and let air dry
reassemble
(to make cleaning easier we line the slicer with plastic wrap before using it)
