INSTRUCTIONS:
- Remove Oven Racks:
- Start by removing the oven racks to provide easier access to all surfaces.
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to a low temperature, around 150°F (65°C).
- Create the Cleaning Solution:
- In a heat-resistant bowl, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of white vinegar.
- Place the bowl in the center of the oven and let it sit for 20 minutes. The steam created will help loosen the grime.
- Sprinkle Baking Soda:
- While the bowl is generating steam, make a paste using baking soda and a few drops of dish soap.
- Apply the paste to the interior surfaces of the oven, focusing on areas with stubborn stains and grease.
- Let the Magic Happen:
- Close the oven door and let the vinegar steam and baking soda paste work their magic for another 20-30 minutes.
- The combination of steam and the natural cleaning power of baking soda will loosen and break down the grime.
- Scrub Away Residue:
- After the waiting period, use a scrubbing sponge or brush to gently scrub away the loosened residue.
- Pay extra attention to corners and areas with built-up grime.
- Wipe Down and Rinse:
- Dampen a microfiber cloth with water and wipe down all surfaces to remove any remaining residue.
- If needed, rinse the cloth and wipe down the oven again to ensure it’s free of cleaning solution.
- Replace Oven Racks:
- Once satisfied with the cleanliness, return the oven racks to their places.
- Admire the Sparkle:
- Open the oven door and marvel at the brilliance of your clean and sparkling oven.
The Bowl Method is truly a magic trick for oven cleaning, offering a simple and effective solution to restore your appliance to its former glory. Bid farewell to harsh chemicals and labor-intensive scrubbing, and embrace the enchantment of a sparkling oven that looks and feels brand new. Your kitchen will thank you for it
