Good afternoon friends!

The first month of spring is coming to an end. Despite the fact that the sun doesn’t come out often yet, you still want to do some general cleaning of the house, especially since Easter will soon be approaching before you know it.

Shall we clean the stove today? I already cleaned mine just this morning, it shines like new! I will share tips with you: how to clean the stove from carbon deposits and grease, how to clean the grate of a gas stove, what folk remedies to use for the stove. Will you tell us about your secrets and effective methods, okay?

Of course, it is correct to wash the stove every day, as well as the dishes. Both aesthetically pleasing and hygienic, and not much time will be spent. But this does not always happen due to various circumstances.

And no matter how neat we are, sometimes we have to make efforts to clean the stove from carbon deposits. For example, this happens to me when I cook pea soup, it always tries to escape from the pan. It’s like the guard is on guard, if you turn away for a second, he’ll immediately do a mischief.

Well, rarely do anyone wash the stove handles and grates every day.

So, let's start putting our stove in order.

Stove cleaner

You probably first of all ask the question, how to clean the stove?

I want to say that to clean the stove you can, in principle, use any detergents, but not abrasive, so as not to damage the enamel.

I gave up chemicals a long time ago and use simple ones to clean both the stove and dishes.

It doesn’t matter what you use to clean it, you just need to keep in mind that no matter what stove cleaner you use, not one, even the super-effective one that is advertised, will begin to act instantly. Such miracles do not happen, because any product must first react with fat and carbon deposits; the fat particles are broken down gradually. So don’t rush to rub right away, wait a little until the fat dissolves, and then all that remains is to lightly rub and wash the surface.

How to clean the surface of the stove

First of all, remove the grate and burners from the stove.

Option 1: soda

We put a solution of baking soda and water in a cup, apply this slurry to the surface of the stove using a sponge. In those places where there is particularly strong contamination: carbon deposits and dried grease, usually around the burners, we apply more product.

Leave for 5 minutes, wipe with a damp sponge. Heavily contaminated areas can be cleaned a little without requiring much effort. Then wipe the stove with a damp cloth and wipe dry.

In severe cases, when the stove remained dirty for several days (this is not about us at all, but still), we leave the slurry of water and soda for more long time- for 15-20 minutes or simply repeat the cleaning procedure again.

This is how you can quickly and easily clean the stove from carbon deposits and grease with soda. I always use this method.

Second option: vinegar and soda

We work with gloves!

Sprinkle a little vinegar (regular table vinegar, 6 or 9 percent) on the surface of the stove. Just a little bit, you don’t want the vinegar to float. We help it spread over the entire surface of the slab with a sponge.

Sprinkle soda on top. The vinegar and baking soda will react and begin to sizzle. After the reaction has finished, you can wait a few more minutes and clean and wash the stove.

After cleaning the stove with vinegar, it shines and sparkles in an absolutely amazing way! The surface of the stove even creaks if you run your finger over it.

The only downside to this method for me is that you need to wear gloves! But they are not always at hand, and I don’t really like working with gloves.

So for daily cleaning of the stove I just use soda, and during spring cleaning already soda and vinegar.

How to clean stove handles

Cleaning the handles from the stove is also a sore point. A lot of different dirt flows under them during cooking.

I heard that hard-to-reach areas around handles can be cleaned with ammonia-anise drops using cotton swabs. Ammonia removes fat very well, and anise softens strong smell ammonia.

The scheme is still the same - clean - wash - wipe.

But I didn't use this method.

Until recently, I cleaned my pens with baking soda using an old toothbrush.

We need these devices in cases where the handles on the stove cannot be removed.

When I was preparing this material, I came across the following video by Nelya Gulyavay, be sure to watch it!

After watching, I ran to find out if the handles on my stove were removable. It turned out yes! To my shame, I didn't know this.

Well, now everything has become even simpler: we remove the handles, clean them, wash them, as well as the surface of the stove under them, and put everything back in place.

Cleaning the burners is also not difficult. You need to apply a cleaning agent to them, after a few minutes rub them with a toothbrush, wash and dry.

How to clean the grate on a gas stove

Now we are approaching the worst part: the bars. There’s already soot accumulated on it, it’s terrible!

I read this interesting thing: supposedly the grilles are specially made black so that carbon deposits on them are not visible.

Every day, drops of liquid and fat flow onto the grates, dry up, and during cooking they heat up, smoke, and we breathe in this harmful fumes, so we need to clean the grates more often.

Under no circumstances should knives be used to avoid damaging the surface and leaving unsightly scratches on it.

I looked on the Internet about the recommended methods for cleaning the grate: heating it over a fire, getting rid of carbon deposits with a blowtorch, and boiling it in water with soda and laundry soap.

This is boiling, in fact, the most effective method for cleaning cast iron grates. What do I need to do?

Take the largest saucepan, pour water, put it on the fire to boil. Pour 5 tablespoons of soda ash (per 10 liters of water), a finely grated piece of laundry soap, you can also add an apple, which should also be grated.

Soda ash has better cleaning properties; it has high acidity, so we have a greater chance of achieving the desired result.

We immerse the grate in this solution and boil for quite a long time, looking at the situation and contamination.

But not every grate can fit into a pan, and those made from other materials cannot be boiled at all. There is an exit. Place the grate on a baking sheet, lay it down with oilcloth and pour this hot, freshly boiled solution over it. After an hour, you can clean and wash the grill.

How to clean the grill on gas stove more? You can do it even simpler: apply a slurry of soda to the surface of the grate for 40 minutes, and then clean it with a steel wool, which is what I usually do.

Ugh! The work is finished, the stove shines, it’s nice to look at it and it’s nice to be in a clean kitchen, and you’re not ashamed in front of guests and household members.

No kitchen today can be imagined without a stove on which the cooking process takes place. And since this device is used frequently, its surface becomes dirty after almost every action performed on it. To prevent the stove from becoming covered with an indelible layer of grease and soot over time, you need to clean it in a timely manner.

It is best to wash the stove after each use. In this case, regular dishwashing detergent and a sponge soaked in water are sufficient.

You can fight already ingrained dirt with a slice of lemon. It is enough to wipe the tile surfaces with it and wait 15-18 minutes until the acid is absorbed into the dirty spots. Next, all that remains is to wipe the coating with a clean cloth and enjoy the oven without dirt or streaks.

A solution of soap and soda works great for removing carbon deposits and grease on the stove:

• First you need to mix 2 tbsp. l. soda with liquid soap;
• Then add a little water to the resulting mixture;
• Apply the solution to the stove cover and wait 15-17 minutes;
• Wipe the stove with a clean sponge.

When cleaning a stainless steel stove, you should not use products containing acid, chlorine or abrasive particles that scratch the surface. The same can be said about enamel surfaces - they cannot be washed with metal brushes or substances with abrasives. Creamy cleansers are best suited for this purpose.

To clean the burners and switches on the stove from carbon deposits you need:

• Remove each burner and place it in a solution of dishwashing detergent and water for 18-20 minutes;
• Then wipe the items with a sponge and rinse the solution thoroughly with water;
• Wipe thoroughly.

To clean dirt from switches, you can use cotton pads or swabs previously soaked in ammonia.
