So quite ashamed of my microwave. Having not used it in a while we cooked soup in there. This happened!
Yuk!
So I went to the supermarket and bought a lemon!
Had heard about this before so decided to do a picture blog so you could see the results. First I chopped the lemon up and put in a Pyrex jug of water🍋
Easy!
Next I put the jug of lemons in the microwave and put on high setting for 3 minutes. The next bit is important. Once the three minutes is up, do not open the microwave door for another 5 minutes. This will allow the steam to break down all the food particles which are stuck to the inside.
Once the five minutes is up open the door and remove the jug of lemons. The inside of the microwave should easily wipe clean. Once left to cool slightly, the lemon water can be used to clean the glass plate and all surfaces of the microwave. Pay particular attention to cleaning the handles and timers as they are often handled so can harbour germs.
I think you will agree this is heaps better. It smells amazing too. This really was very easy with no scrubbing needed at all .
So if life gives you lemons, clean the microwave 🍋🍋🍋🍋
Keep sparkling!
