To clean the oven and oven door use this quick formula.

First, vacuum out the oven to remove any loose debris. To clean your vacuum tool put it in the dishwasher. I often use the wet dry vacuum and my VaccUFlex. BUY IT HERE

Make a thick paste of baking soda, hydrogen peroxide and white vinegar. I use 1/2 cup peroxide and 1/2 cup white vinegar and add enough baking soda to create a thick paste.

Apply to the entire oven. Let sit for an hour and then spray the paste with more hydrogen peroxide to moisten it again. Use a scrubbing sponge or FINE (0000) Steel Wool to clean it. Rinse well.

Apply the same paste to the oven door glass and metal, following the same directions.

STEAM YOUR OVEN WITH LEMONS AND WATER

A pan of water and two lemons is all you need to get your oven clean.

Fill a 2 quart pan with water, add the juice of two lemons and add the lemon halves also. If you don’t have fresh lemons use about ½ – cup of bottled lemon juice.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

Bring the water/lemon to a boil on the stove top and then carefully place it in the oven on the rack. Close the door.

Shut the oven off after 1 hour and leave the pan in the oven with the door closed for an hour or so.

Carefully remove the pan – the water may still be hot.

Use the cooled lemon water and little baking soda on a scrubbing sponge to clean the oven.

Use a brush if needed for small areas. A nail brush works great.

Rinse as needed.
