Cleaning stovetop burners is one of those dreaded kitchen tasks that most of us try to avoid. The layers of grease, splatters, and grime seem impossible to tackle without spending hours scrubbing. But, thanks to my nana’s secret, there’s a quick and easy solution—using baking soda and vinegar. With just a few steps and materials you likely already have at home, you can have sparkling clean burners without breaking a sweat. Let’s dive into this magic cleaning trick!
The Magic Combo: Baking Soda and Vinegar
Why Baking Soda and Vinegar?
Baking soda is mildly abrasive, which means it scrubs off grime without scratching surfaces. Plus, it’s alkaline, making it perfect for neutralizing acidic grease. On the other hand, vinegar is acidic, dissolving grease and mineral deposits with ease. When combined, these two create a fizzing reaction that lifts stubborn grime, making it much easier to wipe away.
