At some point I learned to clean as I cook, washing each item immediately as I'm done with the step that uses it. If you can get in the habit, it's so much easier. Never a huge stack to clean and nothing sits there getting stuck on the pot/plate/whatever. Dishes are done before sitting down to eat and there's only a couple when you're done eating.
You don't need any more than 2 cooking vessels be that a pot and pan or 2 pots. If you use more stop it! Also do the bloody dishes I ain't your mother! How can 1 person use 4 plates and 12 forks before dinner in 1 day!?! How!
I have been asking my wife this for 3 years now. She still hasn't been able to give a satisfactory answer.
Hey fuck you. "BECAUSE!!!!!" is a perfectly satisfactory answer
Maybe for you, but I'm the one who does the dishes, if every plate and half the cups are dirty in a single day when I've been at work, then I'd like to know how 2 meals used 6 plates and a dozen cups.
My roommate uses every dish in the house daily. Idk how, it's ridiculous
Don't judge me!
Dishwashers are a necessity in the kitchen if you have the space. I almost never hand wash a dish.
There are some dishes that should only be handwashed though. Most knives, pots, and pans shouldn't be dishwashed. Even the ones that claim to be dishwasher safe will not last as long if dishwashed.
If it can't be cleaned in the dishwasher, it isnt for me. Dont care what the label says. I put every dish through the crucible. If it melts, it's trashed. If it cracks, it's trashed. No pussy dishes in my kitchen. Get in the magic scalding water box and quit your bitchin'.
Amen! If they don't survive the dishwasher then it's just nature culling the weak from the pack.
I try to just not buy things that can't be put in the dishwasher.
