Oven Cleaning


When I was in the market for a new stove I decided I wanted one that was self cleaning.  I thought how great it would be to not have to ever clean the oven again.  Well, I should have done my homework.  It is simple but it's a job that takes hours to do.  I mean like 5 hrs! The temperature inside the oven gets so hot that anything which may have spilled while baking is completely cremated and turned into dust.  I've gone through this process twice in the 5 years that I've owned my stove.  Oh, I want my oven clean but I've found a really easy way to do it without using so much electricity.

To remove grease from inside your oven, put a small pan of ammonia in the oven in the evening, and then close the oven door. In the morning, remove the pan of ammonia. The grease inside the oven will wipe off very easily.
This works wonderfully.  I open the oven door and let the odor escape before wiping out my oven and this process takes about 15 minutes to do and I don't heat up the kitchen with that 800 degree self cleaning method.
