Yes, lemon is a great ally to have in the kitchen, not only for preparing recipes, but also for cleaning and deodorizing.
So here’s how to use lemon to naturally clean your microwave:
- Pour 2 cups of water and the juice of a whole lemon into a microwave-safe bowl.
- Cut the remaining lemon into pieces, add them to the bowl and place the bowl of water inside the appliance.
- Heat the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes depending on the power of your appliance.
- Wipe with a cloth or sponge and remove all dirt and food residue now loosened and softened by the steam from the water and lemon.
If you don’t have lemon or lemon juice at home, replace this ingredient with white vinegar which will be just as effective in removing food residue stuck to the walls of your microwave.
Rub half a lemon on the walls of the microwave.
