No need to scrub! Simply place the oven rack in a plastic bag: it will come out spotless, like new.

Carefully pour the solution into the bag, then seal it tightly. Shake gently to distribute the liquid evenly.

Leave it to work without doing anything.
Leave it for a minimum of two hours — or overnight if the grid is very dirty.

Rinse and admire!
Take the grid out of the bag, rinse it with clean water… and admire the result: the residue comes off without scrubbing!

Why does this method work so well?
It’s a matter of gentle chemistry!

Dishwasher detergent or tablets break down grease and food residue.
Baking soda acts as a natural cleaner, removing stains without damaging metal.
The moisture and heat inside the bag boost the mixture’s effectiveness.
It’s a trick passed down through generations—simple, clever, and incredibly effective!
