The Ultimate Guide to Cleaning Your Oven: A Simple Yet Effective Method
Keeping your kitchen clean is essential, not just for aesthetics but also for hygiene. One of the most challenging appliances to maintain spotless is the oven. Over time, it can accumulate grease, burnt food, and stubborn stains that seem impossible to remove. However, with the right approach, you can get your oven looking as good as new. The image you see demonstrates a tried-and-true method that many people swear by.
Step-by-Step Oven Cleaning Process
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies To get started, you will need the following items:
Baking soda
White vinegar
A heat-resistant dish or bowl
Warm water
A sponge or scrub brush
Gloves (optional)
Step 2: Remove Oven Racks Before you begin cleaning the oven, remove the racks. Soak them in a sink filled with warm, soapy water. If they are especially dirty, you might want to let them soak overnight.
Step 3: Prepare the Baking Soda Paste In a small bowl, mix half a cup of baking soda with a few tablespoons of water until it forms a thick paste. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.
Step 4: Apply the Paste Using a spatula or your hands (with gloves on), spread the baking soda paste all over the interior of the oven. Focus on areas with heavy build-up or stains. Once applied, leave it to sit overnight. The baking soda will work to break down the grease and grime.
