Remove Oven Glass Grease In 5 Minutes Using 1 Natural Item

 

You can rid your oven door of a layer of grease in as little as five minutes using one item.

The oven is one of the most used appliances in most households and while it helps to put tasty meals on the table, an unfortunate side effect is a build up of grease and grime.

While care can be taken to avoid spillages in the oven by using baking trays and oven liners, there’s little you can do to stop grease from building up on the glass of your oven door. Fats and oils from food evaporate as the oven heats up, but these

then condense when it cools back down, leaving a layer of greasy residue on the door. If you don’t clean your oven after you’ve used it (let’s face it, who does?) then the more grease will build up, and over time it can become quite difficult to remove.

Luckily, there is a natural remedy you can use to rid your oven door of that nasty sticky layer of food residue, and you won’t have to use too much elbow grease to get it off, which is good news if you haven’t cleaned your oven in a while.Cleaning experts say a lemon is all you need to rid your oven door of grease and grime and it’ll leave it smelling lovely and fresh in as little as five minutes.

The citric acid in lemon juice helps to dissolve and cut through grease easily, and as it doesn’t leave any unsightly streaks or residue, it is ideal for cleaning glass. It also has the added bonus of being chemical-free, and it leaves a sweet, fresh scent, avoiding the need for any artificial fragrances.

Oven Detailing says: “If your oven door glass is covered in smudges, grease, and fingerprints, you don’t need expensive chemical cleaners to fix it. Lemon juice is a natural, non-toxic cleaner that cuts through grease and leaves your oven door streak-free and smelling fresh.”

To clean your oven door, cut a lemon in half and rub it over the glass. Leave it to sit for about five minutes before wiping it down with a warm, damp cloth. If you don’t have any fresh lemons, using around three tablespoons of lemon juice should work just as well.

If there’s any dirt that hasn’t come off, you can try steam cleaning your oven with lemon to tackle particularly stubborn layers of grease.

Oven Clean explains: “If you’re looking to get rid of some tough grease and dirt on the inside of your oven, try a little steam cleaning.

“Fill an oven-proof bowl with water. Take one or two lemons (limes would also work), cut them in half and squeeze the juice into the bowl. Place the bowl in the oven. Close the door of your oven, and turn your oven on.

“Keep an eye on the water, and as soon as you see it start to boil, turn the oven off, allowing it to cool down with the door closed, while the steam circulates.

“This great little trick will help with dislodging some of the grime and grease, giving you a head start to a quick and easier oven clean.”
