How to do the envelope technique
Putting the plastic bag technique into practice is very simple. If you find yourself with the stove full of food splashes, fried food or other foods you have cooked, with this method you will solve the problem and you will be able to have a splendid hob in no time . The first thing to do before proceeding is to check if the burners or grills are hot. If there are no problems, here is what you need to do:
- Remove the grates from the hob ;
- Remove the burners, taking off the top and bottom;
- Place some crumpled paper towels inside the burners;
- Spray the degreasing mixture prepared earlier on the hob;
- Open the ends of some plastic bags and cover the entire stovetop;
- Let it all work for about ten minutes.
Stove and Grill Envelope Technique
In the meantime, take a plastic bag and put the hob grates inside. In another bag, put the burners and spray the inside of the bags with the degreaser you prepared earlier.
Let these act for ten minutes and then take the grates, pass a kitchen sponge with the green part over them and rinse under running water , preferably warm. Also clean the stove and burners with the sponge, taking care to remove any encrustations with the green part and rinse under the tap.
The stove and burners will be sparkling clean and shiny, like never before. Once this phase is completed, it is time to remove the bags from the hob. Take a soft microfiber cloth and remove all the degreaser from the various points of the hob, also removing encrustations and dirt.
Rinse the cloth and wipe it again until the hob is completely clean and free of dirt and encrustations. Then dry it perfectly and you will have finished cleaning everything, obtaining exceptional results with little. As you can see, with the envelope method you do not need to spend hours degreasing the hob, burners and grills!
