Step-by-Step Guide to Nana’s Effortless Stovetop Burner Cleaning
Step 1: Remove the Burner Grates
Start by carefully removing the burner grates from your stovetop. If your stove has burner caps, lift those off as well. Set them aside on a safe surface where you can easily access them later.
Step 2: Prepare the Cleaning Paste
In a small bowl, mix baking soda with a little bit of water to create a thick paste. You want the paste to be spreadable but not runny—think of the consistency of peanut butter. This paste is your secret weapon for breaking down the grease and grime that accumulates on your burners.
Step 3: Apply the Paste to the Burners
Take a spoon or spatula and spread the baking soda paste generously over the stained and greasy areas of the stovetop burners. Don’t worry if you apply it a little thickly—this is the part where the magic happens. Let the paste sit on the burners for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the baking soda to work its way into the grime, loosening it up for easy removal.
Step 4: Spray with Vinegar
After the paste has had time to sit, grab a spray bottle filled with white vinegar. Spray a generous amount of vinegar directly over the baking soda paste. The vinegar will react with the baking soda, creating a fizzing and bubbling action. This is exactly what you want—it helps to break up the grease and makes the cleaning process a lot easier. Let it fizz for about 5 minutes.
