Argentine Home Guides Elevate Lemon Juice as the Best Way to Degrease Ovens and Roasting Pans

New step-by-step advice explains warming the juice and letting it dwell briefly to loosen buildup while sidestepping harsher chemicals.

Overview

  • The latest how-to pieces recommend squeezing one or two lemons, briefly heating the juice, applying it to greasy areas, and letting it sit for 5 to 15 minutes before wiping clean.
  • For very stubborn or burned-on deposits, outlets say a spoonful of baking soda mixed with lemon juice can create an effervescent boost to help lift residue.
  • Guides highlight advantages over standard degreasers, including low cost, biodegradable ingredients, no harsh chemical residues, antibacterial action, and odor neutralization.
  • Reporters note limits for deeply carbonized grease, advising gentle scraping or longer soaks and acknowledging that stronger commercial products may still be needed.
  • Safety tips include avoiding abrasive pads on enamel or nonstick coatings, testing first on sensitive surfaces, and ventilating the area when applying heat.
