Tips to Clean a Microwave

* Before getting started, it is important for you to loosen the grip of the dirt on your microwave. For this, fill a microwave safe glass bowl half way with water with a table spoon of white vinegar. Place this bowl inside the microwave. Turn the oven on for 5 minutes. This will steam up the walls of the microwave and will loosen the dried-on gunk.
* After it is done, remove the glass bowl and wipe the interiors of the microwave with a clean cloth towel or paper towel.
* Usually, the loose gunk comes off easily like this, without chemical cleaners inside the oven.
* After this, take out the glass tray or turntable and wash it like a dish. To save effort, you can even run it through the dishwasher.
* Another way of cleaning the microwave is by cutting a lemon in half and placing both the halves cut-side down on a microwaveable plate with a tablespoon of water.
* Turn it on for about one minute or until the lemon is hot and the interiors of the microwave are steamy.
* After this, you can wipe the interiors of the microwave with a kitchen paper and the turntable as above.
