How to Deep Clean Your Microwave Naturally (Without Harsh Chemicals)
Whether it’s sauce splatters or baked-on grime, microwaves collect food residue fast. The good news? You don’t need toxic fumes or harsh chemical sprays right where you prepare your food. You can achieve a spotless, disinfected finish using simple household items.

The Steam-Clean Method
Mix the Solution: Fill a microwave-safe bowl with 1 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice or lemon slices.
Steam It Out: Microwave on HIGH for 3–5 minutes until the liquid boils and the window fogs up with steam.
Let It Sit: Leave the door closed for at least 5 minutes. The trapped steam breaks down baked-on grease and food particles. This step is also critical because it gives time for the bowl to cool so that its safer to remove (still a good idea to use pot holders depending on what the bowl is made from; ie glass or ceramic).
Wipe Clean: Carefully remove the bowl. Use a wet microfiber cloth to effortlessly wipe down the interior walls, door seal, and turntable.
