Quick way to steam your oven with lemon juice

How one:

1. Fill a 2 liter pan with water, add the juice of two lemons and add the lemon halves as well. If you don't have fresh lemons, use about half a cup of bottled lemon juice.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
3. Bring the water / lemon to a boil on the stove, then carefully place it in the oven on the wire rack.
4. Close the door.
5. After 1 hour, turn off the oven and leave the pan in the oven for about an hour with the door closed.
6. Carefully remove the pan – the water may still be hot.
7. Use the cooled lemon water and some baking soda on a scrubbing sponge to clean the oven.
8. If necessary, use a brush for small areas. A nail brush works great.
9. Rinse as needed.

Linda says:

This method can also be used with self-cleaning ovens without damage.

Why it works:

The steam from lemon juice and water softens the dirt and makes it easier to wipe off. Lemon is a natural bleach and disinfectant, making it perfect for cleaning prep and cooking areas.
