The oven is undoubtedly one of the most difficult appliances to clean. In fact, traces of splashes and food residues accumulate after each cooking and clog the walls. Fortunately, there is a simple method to remove them effortlessly.
Over time the oven accumulates a significant amount of dirt and grease stains. Due to lack of time or willpower, its cleaning is often postponed, if not neglected. Result: food residues stick to the internal walls of the oven and become very difficult to remove. And as with all household appliances, when maintenance is done poorly, performance may not be optimal.
How to clean the oven?
If you want to continue preparing roasts without having to spend hours cleaning the oven, the secret is to apply the following trick. This is based on the use of a cleaning product that has proven itself in terms of cleaning.
Clean the oven with a dishwasher capsule
Dishwasher capsule
Thanks to its degreasing and sanitizing properties, dishwasher tablets remain an effective solution for cleaning the oven. To take advantage of its many virtues , simply place one capsule on a heat-resistant baking tray or plate. Then pour boiling water over the product and place the container in the oven preheated to 100°C. Leave to act for an hour, taking care to keep the oven door closed. The capsule will then begin to melt and release a cleaning vapor inside the oven. Thanks to the resulting steam, the droplets settle on the walls of the oven and soften stubborn dirt and food residues which will come off more easily. All you have to do is wipe with a damp cloth to finish cleaning. For a flawless result, wipe again with a clean cloth. Dishwasher tablets are designed to treat dirt at high temperatures. No wonder it works to clean the oven!
There are several methods for eliminating dirt inside the oven. These offer a great alternative to chemical cleaning products. Here are some examples.
Use table salt to thoroughly clean the oven
It is quite possible to clean the oven effortlessly using an accessible and natural ingredient – table salt. To start, sprinkle a sufficient amount of this ingredient on the dirty spots of the oven. Then turn on the oven at a temperature of 180°C. The heat will thus brown the small particles of salt which will dissolve the dirt. After about thirty minutes, turn off the oven and then open it, protecting yourself from the steam that comes out. Leave to cool then, using a cloth moistened with water, clean the inside of the oven to remove burnt residue and other food debris.
Choose the bowl method to clean your oven
If you’re looking for an easy method to clean your oven, there’s nothing like the bowl method. All you need is a squeeze of lemon and a small container that can withstand the heat. Then squeeze the juice from four lemons and place in the oven at a temperature of 250°C. Let the juice boil for about thirty minutes. After this time, remove the dish from the oven and clean the internal walls with a damp cloth. Lemon is an excellent cleaner and disinfectant. At the same time it eliminates all bad odors from the oven.
