10 Steps For Dishwashing
Prep
Scrape the dishes to remove leftovers: use a rubber spoon or paper towel. To hang food, soak dishes/kitchen utensils before washing: add detergent or baking soda to the sink/dish plate (or contaminated container) and fill them with hot water; soak for 15 to 30 minutes, then drain and continue with step 2.
TIP: Never spill grease, it can get clogged.
Fill
Fill the sink or dishes with clean, hot water. Add the dish to the water (read the dose label, and some concentrated dishwashers require less). Some dishes are stacked in the sink at the same time, this allows a few minutes of relaxation time while working in the wash.
TIP: During the process, drain the water and start again if it becomes greasy, a cold tool or if the soap foam disappears.
Wash
Wash "in order", starting with slightly dirty items. This usually includes glasses, cups and cutlery. Wash these items first, followed by dishes/plates and serving plates. In general, dishes are easily washed if you keep them underwater while washing them; While working, remove each dish from the water to see if there are missing spots. Finish with cooking utensils/pots and pans. If the pans are soaked with baked goods, then washing is easier. Do not forget to wash the bottom of the pan.
Tip: Be careful when handling kitchen knives! Do not stack them in the sink; instead, wash them one by one and immediately place them on the drying rack (or from the floor until they dry).
Rinse
Rinse the foam and debris with clean hot water. Rinse by soaking it in the sink or in the rinsing tray, passing under the stream or spraying hot water; or placing it on a drying rack and pouring or spraying water on it. If you have a double sink, use the second drain to rinse the washed dishes.
Tip: be sure to rinse inside cups, bowls and glassware
Dry
Air drying is easier than drying a towel. However, cleaning with a clean towel is useful when glassware or cutlery are monitored or photographed. Make sure the towel is clean and change it when it is wet. Paper towels work well for drying utensils and pans, especially if they contain traces of grease.
Tip: Remember to do the cleaning when finished. It will facilitate tomorrow's homework! Rinse and clean the sink, dry the dishes and apply the dishes. Rags, dishcloths and sponges should be left in dry air or washed in the washing machine. Remember to replace sponges and rags more frequently.
