Clean your oven every 1–2 months to prevent buildup.
Store any extra paste in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to a week.
For faster use next time, pre-mix a spray bottle with half water, half vinegar, and a few drops of lemon juice.
Variations:
Add a few drops of essential oil (like eucalyptus or tea tree) to your paste for a fresh scent.
For heavy-duty cleaning, let the paste sit overnight.
Use the same method for oven doors, racks, and stovetops.
FAQ:
Q: Is baking soda safe for ovens with a self-clean function?
A: Yes, but don’t use this method during a self-cleaning cycle. Only use it when cleaning manually.
Q: Can I use apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar?
A: Yes, but white vinegar is more affordable and leaves less odor.
Q: Is this safe for gas ovens?
A: Absolutely—just avoid applying paste directly to burners or ignition components.
