One of the harshest household cleaning solutions that most people try to avoid using is probably chemical oven cleaners. A smart and organic alternative is mixing a solution of 1/2 cup of salt, 1/2 cup of baking soda, 1/2 cup of water and 1/4 cup of vinegar.Make sure the oven is cool and turned off. Combine all the above ingredients to form a thick paste and cover any holes or openings in the oven with tin foil to keep any of the paste from dripping into the broiler. Then spread the mixture on the bottom and side walls of the oven and leave it inside overnight. Finally, mix together 1/4 cup water and 1/4 cup vinegar in a spray bottle and use the solution to clean and wipe off the paste the next day. Don't forget to remove the foil when you're all done.
