The Ultimate Trick to Clean Your Oven Effortlessly
Cleaning the oven is one of those dreaded household chores that many put off — until the grease and grime build up so much it’s impossible to ignore. But what if I told you there’s a simple, effective trick that can make oven cleaning fast, easy, and even satisfying?
Say goodbye to harsh chemicals and endless scrubbing. Here’s a foolproof method to get your oven sparkling clean using ingredients you probably already have at home.
Why Clean Your Oven Regularly?
A clean oven not only looks better but cooks food more evenly and smells fresher. Leftover grease and burnt food residues can cause unpleasant odors, smoke, and even affect the taste of your meals.
What You’ll Need:
- Baking soda
- White vinegar
- Water
- Spray bottle
- Soft cloth or sponge
- Rubber gloves (optional)
Step-by-Step Oven Cleaning Trick
1. Remove Loose Debris
Start by taking out the oven racks and any loose crumbs or burnt bits. You can soak the racks separately in warm, soapy water.
2. Make a Baking Soda Paste
Mix about 1/2 cup of baking soda with a few tablespoons of water to create a spreadable paste. Adjust the water quantity to get the right consistency — not too runny, not too thick.
3. Apply the Paste
Spread the baking soda paste all over the interior surfaces of your oven, focusing on greasy or stained areas. Avoid the heating elements. The paste will turn brown as it absorbs grime — that’s exactly what you want!
4. Let It Sit Overnight
For the best results, leave the baking soda paste on the oven walls overnight (or at least 12 hours). This gives it time to break down tough grease and baked-on food.
5. Spray Vinegar
After the waiting period, fill a spray bottle with white vinegar and spritz it all over the baking soda-coated surfaces. The vinegar will react with the baking soda, creating a fizzy foam that helps lift grime.
