If your oven is not cooking properly or has started smoking, then you’ll want to know how you can clean your oven. Well, we all know dirty ovens are fire hazards!
We know it takes more than just an effort to clean an oven, but it’s not as big a task as most people think. Unfortunately, commercial oven cleaners are very bad for our health; sometimes, they could be deadly too. Breathing their fumes can cause severe health problems.
How to clean a self-cleaning oven?
If you’re lucky enough to own a self-cleaning oven, cleaning your oven is a super easy task: all you need to do is, wipe up large spills on the oven floor, remove the oven racks, and start the self-cleaning cycle. But before you start the cleaning cycle, make sure to remove any kitchen cloth or towel hanging on the oven door, and ensure that nothing plastic or paper is close to the oven’s exterior because it may get really hot during the cleaning cycle.
Cleaning oven naturally
For the rest of us, knowing how to clean an oven involves more steps, but they’re not that complicated. All it requires is a little time and effort to make your oven clean again.
List of things you need
The method we’re going to tell you is one of the simplest methods to clean an oven. The best part of this method is that it doesn’t require many materials, and most of the ingredients can be easily found in houses. Things you need:
-Dishwasher tablets
-Aluminum foil
-Hot water and a bathtub to put it all in
Now, this method takes two hours minimum, but it really makes your oven look brand new.
Here is how to clean your oven
Start by taking out all the removable parts of the oven (including the trays and racks). You can even remove the glass window, but be careful with it.
Next step, you’ll need to wrap each part individually in aluminum foil before putting them in the hot water bathtub. If you’re not able to fully submerge the parts, then you need to find some weight to put on top of it. After that, drop the dishwasher tablets on top of each aluminum wrapped part, and that’s it! The aluminum foils react to the dishwasher tablets, melting off that dinner mess.
After two hours, years of grime and grease will fall off. If you have some mess that’s more stubborn, it shouldn’t take more than just a wipe to get back the brand new shine.
