Dishwashing Clean dishes and utensils are important to family health. Bacteria grow on dishes and utensils that have not been thoroughly cleaned, rinsed, and dried. Dirty dishes, utensils, and food scraps left sitting in the kitchen can attract cockroaches, mice, or other pests. Step 1 Getting Organized You can make dishwashing easier and faster if you organize your work. You will need: hot water, rubber mats to protect dishes from breakage, a rubber scraper for removing excess food, steel wool or a scouring pad, a wire dish rack, a tray, dish washing detergent, clean dishcloths and towels – to be used only for dish washing. (Make sure they are absorbent and lint free). To be efficient, keep work surfaces as neat and free of clutter as possible. Save steps by using a tray to carry dishes from the table to the sink. Always set dirty dishes in the cleanup area rather than setting them down somewhere else and then having to move them again. Usually it is easier to sort and stack similar dishes in piles. Store detergents and cleaning agents near the sink to save steps. However, for safety’s sake, make sure they are not accessible to small children. Store plastic wrap, aluminum foil, and storage containers near the cleanup area so they will be handy when storing leftovers. If you are right handed, move the dishes from the right to the left. Stack the dirty dishes on you right, wash them in the sink in front of you, rinse them, and stack the clean dishes on a draining rack to your left. If you are left handed, move them from left to right. Make sure the clean dishes are placed in a clean area where it will be convenient to put them away. A double sink is ideal because it allows one side for soapy water and the other for rinsing dishes. Step 2 Preparing the Dishes Dishwater will stay clean longer if you scrape dishes first with a rubber spatula. Scrape the excess grease out of pots with a paper towel. Soak extra dirty dishes in hot water right after use. Co
