Want to stick to a 100% natural routine? Here are two simple and equally effective alternatives.
The baking soda + lemon combo
A homemade paste that smells great and does the job perfectly:
Mix 3 tablespoons of baking soda with the juice of one lemon.
Apply generously to the dirty areas.
Leave on for 30 minutes, then lightly scrub with a damp sponge.
Result: Baking soda dissolves grease and neutralizes odors, while lemon disinfects and leaves a fresh scent.
White Vinegar Steam Bath
Steam is the best ally for softening residue without scrubbing.
Fill an ovenproof dish with a mixture of half water and half white vinegar.
Heat at 120°C (250°F) for 30 minutes in a closed oven.
Once cooled, simply wipe with a soft cloth.
Why does it work? The heat helps loosen dirt, and the vinegar gently deodorizes and disinfects.
Good Habits for Keeping Your Oven Clean
We know that the best way to avoid major chores is regular maintenance. Here are some simple habits to adopt:
Clean up spills after each use, even quickly with a damp cloth.
Protect the oven floor with a sheet of parchment paper or a reusable mat.
Perform a quick weekly cleaning with a little white vinegar and a soft sponge.
