The “bowl method” for cooking lemon juice
The bowl method can be done with another natural ingredient: lemon. This citrus fruit, known for its numerous cleaning and stain removing properties, will be a valuable ally in cleaning your oven. To apply this method, this time you will need two bowls of lemon juice. Use the first to moisten all the surfaces of the oven with a sponge soaked in lemon juice. Then place the second bowl inside the appliance and heat it to a temperature of 250°C for around thirty minutes. Leave to cool then, using a sponge, remove all dirt before rinsing with a clean, damp cloth. The lemon will eliminate greasy residue, leaving a sweet citrus smell inside the oven.
More tips for easily cleaning your oven and making it shine
In addition to the bowl method, there are other tips for cleaning your oven thoroughly. In a few simple steps, you will find your appliance sparkling clean. Here are a few examples.
Clean the oven with baking soda
Before you begin, remove the oven racks to clean them in the kitchen sink. Place a newspaper or broom under the oven to protect the floor. Next, prepare a simple solution by mixing ½ cup of baking soda and a few tablespoons of water. Once the mixture is obtained, spread it over all the walls of the oven, taking care to cover all dirty areas of the oven, including the glass door. Leave to sit overnight. The next day, clean the interior of the oven with a damp cloth. Also use a spatula to scrape off any residue of hardened product. For an impeccable result, spray vinegar inside the device then wipe it one last time.

Repeat with another damp sheet if necessary.
