Cleaning an oven doesn’t have to mean scrubbing for hours or using harsh chemicals. Nana’s simple trick
requires just three items: a dishwashing pod, a heatproof casserole dish, and water. Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C),
fill the dish with water, and drop in the pod. Place it on the middle rack and let the oven steam for about an hour.
The heat activates the pod’s enzymes, loosening baked-on grease and grime. Once the oven cools slightly, wipe down
the interior with a damp cloth. Even stubborn spots often come off with minimal effort. For extra mess, use a soft brush or repeat the process.
Unlike traditional oven cleaners, this method avoids toxic fumes, making it safe for families and kitchens where food
is regularly prepared. Used monthly, it prevents heavy buildup, improves cooking quality,
and reduces fire hazards. It’s also energy-efficient and uses everyday items most people already have at home.
Nana’s method shows how a little steam and the right cleaner can turn oven maintenance into a quick, stress-free task.
Instead of dreading the chore, you can enjoy a sparkling, fresh-smelling oven in under 90 minutes—no gloves, no chemicals, just smart cleaning.
