Resetting all Reactive Variables in Meteor?

Multi tool use
In Meteor I have a Bootstrap modal on my Product Management page, which I can use to create new Products. When I click the button to create a new product, a modal opens, and I can fill out the form and submit, cool!
The form has some gated inputs, which are shown/not shown depending on the previous inputs and selections. For instance, I need to select a Category before any of the other fields are shown and before I can continue filling out the form.
After I've submitted the form, if I need to create another product, I can open the modal again, but the form is still "filled out".
The abridged Blaze HTML looks something like this:
<!-- ProductManagement Template -->
<div class="modal">
<form id="new-product-form">
{{> ProductCreateForm}}
</form>
</div>
<!-- ProductCreateForm (on its own separate template) -->
<select id="category">
<!-- select options -->
</select>
{{#if categorySelected}}
<!-- show the rest of the inputs -->
{{/if}}
Is there a way for me to reset the form so that I have to start from the beginning using this current setup? Something like reset the ProductCreateForm template to its original onCreated state once the form has been submitted and the modal disappears from view?
I've tried using jQuery to target all inputs and selects and also resetting the form after submit, none of these seem to work. I guess I am not sure if there is a way to reset all Reactive Variables on a child template after an event has occurred without having to individually target each Reactive Var.
In the end I'd like behavior like this:
- On Product Management page, open modal to create new product (form is blank).
- Fill out and submit the form (modal closes on success).
- Open the modal again to create another product (form should be blank again)
Thank you for your time!
