FAQ:
How often should I clean my oven with this method? Cleaning your oven every 3-4 months with this method is usually sufficient, but if you cook greasy foods frequently, you may want to do it more often.
Can I use this method on other surfaces? Yes! This baking soda and vinegar paste is great for cleaning stove tops, microwaves, and even kitchen sinks. Always do a small patch test first to ensure the surface won't be damaged.
What if I don’t have time for the 12-hour wait? While the best results come from letting the paste sit overnight, if you're short on time, even 1-2 hours of waiting can provide some cleaning power. Just be prepared for the process to take a little longer.
Can this method be used in self-cleaning ovens? Yes, this method is safe for self-cleaning ovens, but always check your oven’s manual for any specific care instructions to ensure you don’t accidentally damage any components.
This trick has completely changed how I approach oven cleaning, and I’m sure it will do the same for you! So why spend hours scrubbing when you can have a spotless oven with minimal effort?
