Things You'll Need:
- coffee mug
- water
- lemon
- soapy washcloth or sponge
- dry clean dishcloth
-
Step 1
Fill a coffee mug with water and a few slices of lemon; put it in the middle of the microwave's tray. Cook on a high setting for about three minutes, then turn off the microwave.
-
Step 2
Leave the mug inside for another three minutes or so. The steam will soften food spills, and the hot lemon will get rid of those lingering odors.
-
Step 3
Open the door and take out the mug. Wipe down the walls with warm, soapy water to remove residue and food. Then rinse and dry with a clean dishcloth.
