1. Remove and Soak Burners
If your stovetop has removable burners, gently take them off and place them in a sink or a large container filled with hot, soapy water.
For an extra boost, I love to add a dishwashing tablet to the hot water—it melts away grease and grime effortlessly.
Let the burners soak for about an hour while you prepare the stove cleaning solution.
2. Prepare the Cleaning Paste
In a small bowl, mix half a cup of baking soda with a few tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide.
Stir until you get a thick, spreadable paste.
You can add a few drops of dish soap to the mixture, for extra grease-cutting power.
