Although there are many ways to clean an oven, not all of them will make the oven look new. If you want it to literally shine, use a simple trick with a dishwasher capsule.

Cleaning the kitchen, especially the oven, requires knowledge of clever methods. And even though stores today are full of specialized chemical products to handle every problem, you can also use home remedies that are equally effective and cost just pennies. We present one of them.

How to clean an oven?

One of the most popular ways to thoroughly clean an oven is with baking soda. While it is certainly effective, there's another method that will make the oven shine in just an hour. All you need is water, a heat-resistant dish, and one dishwasher capsule. The rest will take care of itself.

The entire process starts by removing all accessories from the oven. Next, place a heat-resistant dish inside and pour a few cups of water into it. Then, toss in a dishwasher capsule and set the oven to 400°F. Leave it for about an hour. After this time, remove the dish, and the remaining residue—mainly grease—can be wiped off with a cloth. If this isn't enough, use a solution of vinegar and water.

Using a dishwasher tablet

A dishwasher tablet can also be useful for dealing with a clogged sink. Simply fill a glass halfway with hot water and drop in a dishwasher capsule. Once it dissolves, pour the solution into the sink and wait for about 10 minutes. After this time, flush everything with warm water. Repeat the process every two weeks to maintain a clear drain.

If you want to try other methods for cleaning the oven, try the lemon trick. Lemons remove dirt, scale, and grease and polish the surface.
