When cleaning an oven at home, most people use special chemicals.
But don't chemical particles remain on the surface after cleaning? As a result, they can even get into the food.
Therefore, it makes sense to use the method of cleaning the oven without using chemicals, which our grandmothers actively used.
Natural Oven Cleaners
The best cleaning products that can be safely used include:
1. Baking soda. Its main feature is that it is able to clean and degrease the surface.
2. Vinegar. Ideal for removing grease deposits that may accumulate on the surface. Vinegar also helps to get rid of the characteristic odor.
3. Lemon juice. Its properties are similar to vinegar. Due to its high acidity, it performs the function of splitting fat. At the same time, lemon juice has a pleasant aroma, so this remedy is more preferable.
How to clean an oven
When cleaning, you can use one of the methods presented or combine them. Baking soda should be diluted with soda until a homogeneous paste is obtained. Then it should be applied to the bitten areas.
The paste should be rubbed in gently as it is abrasive and may leave minor damage on the surface.
With vinegar it is even easier, it can be applied in pure form or diluted with water. When using vinegar, it makes sense to open the window for ventilation, as it emits an unpleasant odor.
Lemon juice does not have this disadvantage. Instead of lemon juice, you can use citric acid.
All these cleaning methods demonstrate good efficiency. It is always worth using rubber gloves.
If the stains are old, it is better to leave the baking soda paste or vinegar for a few hours to allow the stains to soften a little.
