Life hack: Clean baked-on grease off glassware

Baked-on grease has got to be the most irritating thing in the kitchen. No matter how much you soak or scrub it, it seems to just stay on. But there is one really simple solution that we have found that actually works and won’t cost you a fortune – it practically will cost you nothing at all if you have one kitchen staple handy.

All you need it your glass dish or bakeware and a crumpled ball of aluminium foil.

The trick works just as well for oven racks, and can be used almost anywhere a steel wool pad can be. So if you find yourself without steel wool but have a sink full of baking dishes, give this tip a try.

Simply fill your sink with very hot water and a bit of dish washing liquid. Grab your ball of foil and scrub! It’s that easy.
