Lemon Juice: If you prefer a more fragrant natural cleaner, substitute lemon juice for vinegar. Lemon has natural cleaning properties and a fresh scent that can help neutralize any odors from cooking.
Hydrogen Peroxide: For tougher grease stains, add a few drops of hydrogen peroxide to your baking soda paste. This will boost its stain-fighting power.
Essential Oils: Add a few drops of essential oils (like lavender or tea tree) to your vinegar solution for a pleasant smell and extra antibacterial properties.
FAQ:
Can I clean the burner caps with this method too?
Yes, the same cleaning method works for burner caps. Just be sure to remove them before cleaning, as the paste and vinegar can help break down any stubborn grime stuck to the caps.
What if my burners are still greasy after cleaning?
If there’s still grease left, repeat the process once more. Allow the baking soda paste to sit longer or add more vinegar for an extra boost.
Are there any tools I should avoid?
Avoid using abrasive materials like steel wool, as they can scratch and damage the burners’ surface. Stick to soft sponges or cloths for best results.
Can this method work on other kitchen surfaces?
Absolutely! This method works well on countertops, stovetops, and even oven racks. It’s an excellent all-purpose cleaner for grease and stains in the kitchen.
