How to clean the oven

Many times we have to clean the kitchen and we are always afraid to start with one thing: clean the oven.  Normally, cleaning products must be used in a strategic way so that we do not get damaged or suffocate with toxic fumes while we wash it.  Therefore, you have to know which products to choose from among the millions on the market.  In this post, we are going to explain how to clean the oven in an efficient way and to avoid damaging the environment or the structure of the appliance.  Suitable cleaning products To clean the oven you have to know how to choose among the thousands of products on the market for it.  There are natural alternatives that are just as effective as chemicals and with very good results.  The main problem that arises with chemical products is that they tend to irritate the eyes, the mucosa and leave an unpleasant smell not only in the kitchen, but throughout the house.  Natural products have been used in the home for a lifetime to clean and today, we are going to use these products to clean the oven.  Normally, when we talk about natural products it seems somewhat cumbersome and that it will not work.  It is the same with diseases.  A medicine made with chemicals is always preferred to using natural remedies that have no proven efficacy.  However, in this case, it is proven that these natural products are just as efficient and above all they will not harm the environment or leave a toxic air at home.  The kings of natural cleaning are lemon and vinegar.  If we accompany these products with bicarbonate, we find a very efficient mixture.  The bicarbonate itself is a chemical product but it has a harmless use and it is even usually taken in soft drinks to treat stomach gas and general discomfort.  This combination has a pretty good reputation for removing all grease and dirt from the oven.  It is a task that should be done more often at home but is always very lazy.  Vinegar To clean the oven, vinegar, even if you don't like the smell at all, is a potential ally.  It has various antibacterial and disinfectant properties, which is why it is also widely used to clean fruits and vegetables before consuming them.  A good option is to prepare a spray with a bottle of water and vinegar mixture.  We maintain a ratio of 3 parts of water and only 1 of vinegar.  This way, the mixture won't smell bad.  You should not worry if it smells like vinegar at first, since it is a smell that goes away quite quickly.  This spray is used to spray the walls of the oven.  To do this, we will apply it and let it act for a few minutes.  Once that time has passed, we will rinse it with water and see the results.  If the oven is not too dirty, it will not be necessary to do a deep cleaning.  Just do something faster.  We can fill the tray with 2 glasses of hot water and 1 of vinegar.  We turn the oven to 200 degrees and leave it running for 30 minutes.  After that, we will wipe a damp cloth on the oven walls, on the glass, etc.  You will see that the steam from the vinegar will be more than enough for all the dirt to come out on its own.  Baking soda and mixing with vinegar Baking soda has a myriad of uses in the home.  It is a very cheap product that we can find it anywhere.  We are going to explain how to clean the oven with baking soda.  You will have to spray it directly on the bottom if there are remains of food stuck and spray afterwards with the water and vinegar spray that we have mentioned above.  Another more efficient way to use baking soda is to make a paste with baking soda, water, and vinegar.  This paste makes it stick better and can be used on the oven walls.  You just have to put a bowl with 10 tablespoons of baking soda, 4 of hot water and 3 of vinegar.  With this mixture, we will add the vinegar little by little, since it will react giving rise to foam.  IF we see that the mixture is too liquid, we will add some more bicarbonate.  Next, we will spread the mixture throughout the oven and we will place more emphasis on the areas that are dirtiest or have food remains.  We let the mixture work for a few hours.  If the dirt is high enough, we will let it act overnight.  We do not need to be rubbing, since with this mixture, the dirt comes out practically by itself.  If we want to speed up the process because we have little time, we turn on the oven and let it act for a while with the mixture inside.  This will make the dirt in the oven peel off more quickly.  Yeast This is another product that helps to clean the oven.  The dough that we have previously made with baking soda and vinegar can also be made with yeast and vinegar.  This mixture is less used, since it uses a high amount of yeast.  Baking soda is preferred because it is faster and more effective.  However, we are going to explain how to clean the oven with yeast.  Simply make a mixture like the previous one where we will add glasses of water and vinegar in the same proportion as before, but with yeast until the mixture is more or less solid like a paste.  Salt and lemon If we do not have vinegar in the house, we can use coarse salt.  We can also use it if the smell of vinegar bothers us especially.  We can substitute vinegar for salt, which is also a disinfectant.  It will help us eliminate bad odors, especially if we have prepared fish in the oven.  We will only have to leave the oven tray, add salt with the juice of a lemon and the peel and let it act.  It is best to use the residual heat after using the oven to make the fish.  In this way, you can clean the oven without any unpleasant smell.  Steam helps remove dirt easily.
