🧽 5 ways to use baking soda to tackle grease
Mix baking soda with a little water to form a paste. Apply to cooled surfaces, gently wipe with a soft sponge, then rinse and dry.
Apply a thin paste to suitable, cool oven surfaces. Leave briefly, wipe away, and rinse thoroughly. Follow your oven manufacturer’s instructions.
Sprinkle a little baking soda into the pan with warm water and dish soap. Let it soak, then scrub gently. Avoid abrasive cleaning on nonstick coatings.
Soak compatible, removable filters in warm water with dish soap. A little baking soda may help with stubborn residue. Check the manufacturer’s cleaning guidance first.
Use a dilute baking soda solution and a soft cloth, then wipe with clean water. Test a hidden spot first, especially on delicate finishes.
The simple recipe
-
3 tablespoons baking soda
-
1–2 tablespoons water, added gradually
Mix into a paste, apply to a cool, compatible surface, gently wipe, and rinse thoroughly.
Important safety tips: Never mix baking soda with bleach or other cleaning products indiscriminately. Avoid abrasive pastes on aluminum, polished stone, delicate finishes, and nonstick coatings. For heavy grease, ordinary dishwashing detergent often works better because it is designed to break up grease.
