I once found a handy cleaning tip in an old recipe book for cleaning cookware and bakeware, lemon juice and baking soda. Squeezing how many lemons? Tedious.
Being in the natural beauty industry I have a variety of essential oils, among them lemon essential oil. Lemon essential oil is made from lemon peels where during distillation, the peels are exposed to boiling water or steam. The oils are released into water and then collected through distillation, the steam and EO vapours are condensed and collected in a specialised vessel. All pure. So given I have a lot of enamelware, one day I added baking soda onto the cleaning pad, my go to for washing, and sprinkled a few drops of lemon essential oil as well, it cleaned up much quicker with far less elbow grease. So I used it to clean the oven door window, normally challenging, this too cleaned up easily. And within two days I had used up my 30ml bottle of lemon essential oil, cleaning the oven, range etc. So forgo the messy baking soda and vinegar, instead I highly recommend a sprinkling of baking soda on your favourite cleaning pad and add a few drops of lemon essential oil with a dash of water. Wash off with clean water. Job done. Clean your oven, cookware, and bakeware, low cost, yet very powerful.
Simply natural, and the smell is refreshing.
