I use this general metric to gauge how often one should deep clean their range. If you cook every single day, your stovetop needs to be deep cleaned once per week. I realize this sounds like a lot, but if you are committed to wiping it down after each use, this becomes a much smaller, more enjoyable chore. If you only cook three times per week, you only need to deep clean your stovetop once every two weeks, as long as you are wiping it down after each use.
Why You Should Trust My Advice
I’ve cooked and cleaned in professional kitchens up and down the East Coast over the span of 20 years, using any and every kind of range you can think of. When you’re a professional cook, you’re also a professional cleaner. You own your station, and that means cleaning and maintaining it, restoring it to its original condition at the end of every single shift. It might surprise you to know that baking soda and vinegar are more often than not the very best cleaning ingredients out there.
