Dry. If food has burned onto the oven and is difficult to remove, the

 

spots can be soaked with a cloth saturated with household

 

ammonia. Close the door and allow it to soak for an hour or two,

 

or until the food soil can be easily removed with a damp soapy

 

cloth or mild abrasive. A solution of about 3 tablespoons of

 

household ammonia in a half cup of water may be placed in the

 

warm oven over night. This will loosen hardened residue and

 

spillage so that it may be easily wiped up. The ammonia solution

 

may be added to warm water for a thorough wiping of the oven.
