Kitchen Degrease Plan — Baking Soda + Vinegar Method
Grease in the kitchen builds slowly — one meal at a time. It settles on stovetops, cabinet handles, microwave doors, and backsplash tiles like a quiet film. You don’t need harsh chemicals to cut it. You just need two everyday ingredients:
baking soda + vinegar.
When used right, they dissolve grease beautifully — safely, gently, and without chemical fumes.
🥄 Step 1 — Baking Soda Paste
This is your main degreasing power.
- Mix 3–4 tbsp baking soda with warm water
- Apply directly to greasy areas (especially stove corners)
- Let sit 5–10 minutes for best activation
- Scrub with a soft brush or sponge
It clings to grease and breaks it down without scratching.
🍶 Step 2 — Vinegar Spray Lift
Vinegar reacts with the baking soda to loosen residue instantly.
- Fill a spray bottle with vinegar + a little warm water
- Spray over the baking soda paste
- Let it fizz — this is where the magic happens
- Wipe clean with microfiber for streak-free finish
No fumes. No chemical fog. Just clean.
🔥 High-Grease Zones to Target
- Stovetop edges + gas burner rims
- Microwave handle + touch buttons
- Backsplash tile behind cooking space
- Cabinet doors near stove or fryer
- Range hood underside (big hidden culprit)
Focus small → results big.
🌿 Optional Boosters (Still Natural)
If grease is extra stubborn:
- Add a drop of lemon oil for scent + shine
- Use hot water rinse for faster lift
- Try salt + baking soda paste for cookware bottoms
Still gentle. Still breathable.
💛 Final Thought
A sparkling kitchen doesn’t need a shelf of blue, neon, heavy-duty chemicals.
Baking soda + vinegar + a few slow minutes → a stove that shines like new.
Natural clean. Safe air. Better meals.
