How to Clean Your Oven Glass Easily and Effectively

  1. Prepare the Cleaning Paste: In a bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of baking soda with a little lukewarm water. The goal is to obtain a thick, consistent paste that is easy to spread.
  2. Apply to the Glass: Spread the paste generously over the entire interior surface of the glass, focusing specifically on the heavily encrusted areas.
  3. Let it Sit: Allow the paste to sit for 15 to 30 minutes. This allows the baking soda to dissolve grease and soften burnt residues. For very dirty ovens, you can leave it for up to an hour.
  4. Activate with Vinegar: Spray or pour a little white vinegar over the paste. An effervescent reaction will occur; this fizzing helps lift the dirt without requiring heavy scrubbing.
  5. Clean and Polish: Wipe the mixture away with a damp sponge, then follow with a clean cloth. For a perfect finish, use a dry microfiber cloth to eliminate streaks and restore a brilliant sparkle.

3. Pro Tips for Better Results

  • Warmth is Key: Clean the glass when the oven is lukewarm, never hot. The warmth helps the paste work faster.
  • The Plastic Card Trick: Use an old plastic credit card to gently scrape away stubborn, crusty residues without scratching the glass.
  • Lemon Boost: Add a few drops of lemon juice to your paste for enhanced degreasing power and a fresh scent.
  • Avoid Abrasives: Never use steel wool or abrasive sponges, as they can create micro-scratches that trap grease even faster in the future.

4. Maintenance Checklist

Before You Start:

  • Ensure the oven is off and sufficiently cooled.
  • Remove the oven racks if they get in your way.
  • Test the paste on a small, discreet corner first.

After Cleaning:

  • Check that no baking soda residue remains.
  • Wipe thoroughly to avoid white streaks.
  • Lightly air out the oven before your next use.

Recommended Frequency:

  • Once a month for regular maintenance.
  • Immediately after cooking a particularly greasy or splattery dish.
