### 👩‍🍳 How to Make and Use Homemade Oven Cleaner

#### 1. **Mix the Paste**

In a bowl, combine baking soda and dish soap. Slowly add water until you get a thick, spreadable paste.
If using vinegar, mix it in last — it will fizz briefly.

#### 2. **Apply the Cleaner**

Remove oven racks and set them aside.
Using gloves, spread the paste inside the oven, covering the door, walls, and base. Avoid heating elements.
For heavy grime, apply a thicker layer.

#### 3. **Let It Sit**

Allow the cleaner to sit for **at least 6 hours** or overnight. The longer it sits, the better it works to break down grime.

#### 4. **Scrub and Wipe**

After the wait, use a sponge or toothbrush to scrub away loosened gunk.
Wipe clean with a damp cloth or paper towels. You may need to rinse a few times to remove all residue.

#### 5. **Final Rinse and Shine**

Wipe the oven interior with a clean damp cloth to remove any leftover cleaner.
Let dry before replacing racks and using your oven.
