Introduction
Cleaning the oven can be a dreaded chore, especially when faced with stubborn grease and burnt-on residue. But what if I told you there's a miracle method to restore your oven's sparkle without breaking a sweat or using expensive gadgets? This simple, fuss-free technique requires just a few common ingredients, minimal effort, and works wonders in just 30 minutes. Say goodbye to hours of scrubbing and hello to a gleaming oven!
Ingredients
1/2 cup baking soda
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 cup water
A few drops of your favorite essential oil (optional)
A soft cloth or sponge
Directions
Prepare the Cleaning Paste:
In a small bowl, mix baking soda with a little water until it forms a thick paste. Add a few drops of essential oil for a fresh scent, if desired.
Apply the Paste:
Spread the baking soda paste evenly over the greasy and burnt areas inside your oven, paying extra attention to the bottom and sides. Avoid applying it directly onto heating elements.
Let It Sit:
Close the oven door and let the mixture sit for at least 30 minutes. For tougher stains, let it work its magic for an hour or more.
Add Vinegar:
Fill a spray bottle with white vinegar and spritz it over the baking soda paste. The reaction will create a gentle fizzing action that helps lift stubborn grime.
Wipe Clean:
Using a damp sponge or cloth, wipe away the paste and grease. Repeat the process for any remaining residue, and rinse with clean water for a streak-free shine.
Final Touch:
Dry the oven interior with a clean towel and leave the door open for a few minutes to air out.
