I have been sharing recipes on YouTube for over two years, as a foodie and influencer Marko Savic knows his way around a kitchen.

While he usually serves seasonal menus for his 7,000 followers to try, the chef took a break from his regular videos to share this handy tip.

According to the culinary expert, you can clean the oven door with little effort using baking soda and a damp sponge.

He said, “Sprinkle baking soda on the glass door of your oven and turn the powder into a paste with a clean, wet sponge.”

Rather than wiping this away straight away, Marko suggests letting the paste sit for a few minutes as this will help you remove the worst of the stains.

He added: “After five minutes you should be able to remove most of the dirt with a quick scrub.”

Baking soda acts as a mild abrasive, and you can add more to stubborn areas if they don’t come clean right away.

Once you’re done, simply wipe away any remaining baking soda with a clean, damp cloth (yes, it’s that easy).

Even better, this hack costs less than £1, as Sainsbury’s currently has a jar of baking soda for just 59p.

Unsurprisingly, his fans loved the cleaning hack and many even tried it out for themselves.

“I should have taken before and after pictures! This worked like a charm! Thank you,” says an impressed viewer.

Another fan also tried out the method and revealed that their oven required a little more scrubbing than washing, as shown in the video.

“After two applications of baking soda, two applications of Googone, and a lot of scrubbing, my oven door is looking pretty good,” they noted.

“Be careful it takes quite a bit of scrubbing,” she added.

For those still struggling to get their kitchen appliance spick and span again, it’s worth knowing that most ovens allow you to remove the glass panels.

To do this, you need to unscrew the panel from the door and carefully lift the glass out. Be careful not to damage it as these panels are expensive to replace.

If you’re not sure how to do this, it’s worth checking the manufacturer’s guide before you start, especially if you want to clean between coats.

Hopefully these tips and tricks will have your oven sparkling in no time.
