Mix two tablespoons of baking soda with 60 ml of vinegar in a bowl. Add a glass of warm water and stir well until the baking soda has dissolved. The vinegar has a disinfecting effect and the baking soda removes grease and burnt-on food residues.
Here’s how to apply the solution to the grill:
Dip a sponge into the prepared solution and gently wipe the oven racks, focusing on areas where dirt and burnt-on residues accumulate. The baking soda acts as a polish and the vinegar dissolves grease.
Here’s how to remove stubborn dirt:
For particularly stubborn stains, sprinkle baking soda on the grill and add a little vinegar. Leave it to work for 10-15 minutes.
Then carefully remove any remaining dirt with a sponge. Burnt-on stains are much easier to remove this way.
Final rinse:
Finally, wipe the racks with a damp cloth to remove any detergent residue. You can also rinse them under running water if the racks fit in the sink.
Coconut oil for protection:
To keep the racks clean for longer, apply a thin layer of coconut oil. This will prevent dirt and grease from accumulating during subsequent cooking.
Instructions:
Regular cleaning: To prevent dirt and grease from accumulating, it is recommended to clean the oven racks regularly, preferably after each intensive cooking session.
Suitable cleaning sponge: Choose a sponge with a soft side to avoid scratching the racks, especially stainless steel racks.
Variants:
Cleaning paste: You can make a thicker cleaning paste by mixing baking soda with a small amount of water and applying it to the racks. Remove the dirt with a sponge after a few minutes.
Steam cleaning: If you have a steamer, you can use it to soften burnt-on food residue before cleaning. The steam loosens the dirt, making it easier to remove.
