Prepare the Dishwasher Tablet: Start by placing one or more dishwasher tablets on a baking tray or in a heat-resistant dish. The number of tablets you use may depend on the level of grease and dirt in your oven.
Add Boiling Water: Carefully pour boiling water over the dishwasher tablet(s) until they are fully submerged. Use caution when handling boiling water.
Place in the Oven: Preheat your oven to 100°C and then place the dish containing the dishwasher tablet(s) inside the oven. Make sure the oven door is closed.
Let the Steam Work: Allow the dishwasher tablet to dissolve and release cleaning vapors into the oven. The steam will help soften stubborn dirt and food residue, making it easier to remove.
Wait One Hour: Leave the dishwasher tablet(s) in the oven for approximately one hour. This prolonged exposure to cleaning vapors will help break down grease.
Clean: After an hour, turn off the oven and carefully open the door to let any steam escape. Wait for the oven to cool to a safe temperature.
Wipe Residue: Using a damp cloth or sponge, clean the interior of the oven. Softened dirt and food residue should come off more easily. For a thorough cleaning, you may need to repeat this step.
Finish with a Clean Cloth: To ensure all residue is removed, wipe a clean, damp cloth over the interior of the oven once more.
Dishwasher tablets are designed to tackle tough stains and grease at high temperatures, making them effective for cleaning ovens. This method provides a convenient way to maintain a clean oven without resorting to harsh chemical cleaning products. Remember to clean oven racks and other components using appropriate methods and consider cleaning your oven regularly to prevent the buildup of stubborn stains.
