How to Clean the Oven Using Baking Soda and Vinegar

A dirty oven is a huge problem for any housewife. To restore it to its former cleanliness, a lot of effort and time is required, but not everyone knows that it is not at all necessary to use special detergents for this. Regular baking soda and vinegar will cope with this problem perfectly.

Let's start cleaning the oven

First, take all the baking sheets out of the oven so that they do not interfere.

Take a glass of soda and one third of a glass of plain water. Mix all this thoroughly until a homogeneous mass is formed.

We thoroughly treat the surface inside the oven with this solution.

Just make sure you don't miss anything, especially indentations and other hard-to-reach places. An ordinary rag or sponge is perfect for this - whatever you like. When everything is done, leave the oven in this state overnight.

During this time, you can wash the grates and baking sheets with a regular brush and detergent.

After approximately 12 hours, treat the surface with vinegar.To do this, it is best to use a spray bottle to evenly distribute the liquid over the entire surface and not miss anything.

As a result of the combination of our solution and vinegar, a chemical reaction is formed. You will notice a slight hissing sound, which indicates that the cleaning process is going as it should.
After this, take warm water and thoroughly remove the soda and vinegar with a cloth.

In order to get rid of carbon deposits (mainly on hard-to-reach places and the heating element), use a special kitchen spatula. Please note that depending on how dirty your oven is, this process may take some time. We do all this until the dirt is completely removed. At the end of the work, carefully wipe the surface of the oven with a warm, damp cloth.

Now you have not just a clean and beautiful oven, but a truly shining oven. But the main thing is that you didn’t have to specifically buy any chemicals or other special products for this. We had enough of ordinary baking soda and table vinegar, which are found in every home.
