In a microwave-safe bowl, add approximately two cups of water. 2. Then add between Two Tablespoons and 1/4 Cups of white distilled vinegar. 3. At this point you have the option of adding a few drops of a Citrus essential oil, or go without. 4. Put bowl in microwave, close it, and allow it to run on high for five minutes. 5. Once the time is up, let it sit (with the microwave door still shut), for three to five minutes to allow the steam to continue to soften/loosen up any food particles. 6. Open the door and remove the turntable, and wheeled ring below it. 7. Use a clean rag or dishtowel (paper towels work too) and thoroughly wipe everything out of the microwave. Rinse out your rag, or use a different clean one, as needed. 8. Once done wiping everything out, keep your microwave open to dry out while you take your turntable plate to the sink. Either rinse it and run it through the dishwasher, or wash it by hand with soapy water, rinse, and dry and then return it to the microwave. This method of cleaning a microwave uses the power of steam (boiling vinegar and water) to loosen any food particles that won't seem to budge by just scrubbing...which means that it will now take much less effort to clean your microwave. Now enjoy a deep cleaned, deodorized, and sanitized microwave oven!
