Here’s How to Remove Dirt and Grease from the Hob in Minutes

Your hob is one of the busiest areas in the kitchen, handling everything from simmering soups to frying up your favorite dishes. However, this constant use also means it’s prone to dirt, grease, and burnt-on stains. Keeping your hob clean not only ensures it looks good but also helps to maintain its performance. If you’re tired of scrubbing away for hours, here’s a quick and effective way to remove dirt and grease from your hob in just minutes.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you begin, make sure you have the following cleaning essentials:

  • Dish soap or baking soda (for mild cleaning)
  • Vinegar or lemon juice (natural degreasers)
  • Microfiber cloths (to avoid scratching)
  • Spatula or scraper (for tough grime)
  • Warm water (to help loosen grease)

You’ll also need a bowl and a spray bottle for convenience.

Step 2: Turn Off and Cool Down

Make sure the hob is turned off and has completely cooled down. Safety first! You don’t want to burn yourself or damage the hob while cleaning it.

Step 3: Soak the Stubborn Grime

For grease and sticky dirt, start by creating a simple cleaning solution. You can mix a few drops of dish soap with warm water in a bowl, or use a combination of vinegar or lemon juice with water. Spray this mixture generously over the greasy areas or use a cloth soaked in the solution to wipe down the surface.

Allow the mixture to sit for 5-10 minutes. This gives the solution time to break down the grease and dirt, making it easier to wipe away.

Step 4: Scrape Off Stubborn Residue

For tougher stains or burnt-on grime, use a spatula or scraper to gently remove any food bits or grime. Be cautious not to scratch the surface, especially if you have a glass or ceramic hob. Make sure to use a tool that’s safe for your hob type.

Step 5: Wipe It Clean

After the grime has loosened, take a clean microfiber cloth and gently wipe the surface. Microfiber cloths are perfect for trapping dirt without spreading it around or leaving streaks behind.

If any grease remains, dip the cloth back into the soapy water and continue wiping until the surface is clean. You may need to go over the surface a couple of times to ensure all grease and dirt is removed.
