WASHING UP

.

The prep for washing up is hugely important, the pre wash rinse, the full on total clean and then the best bit of all the hot water rinse and stand to drain.
.
Try to avoid using tea towels as a tea towel is only truly effective if the object you are drying is hot and the tea towel is of a particular type of cotton.

Now we have just finished our Sunday roast and I did not cook it so as is kitchen etiquette its the non cook who does the washing up.

.

firstly and most important of all make sure the water going in the sink is hot, you can add cold to suit later.

.

Now in order to maximise the suds and cleaning ability of your washing up liquid its important to hold the washing up liquid bottle up as high as you can and ever so thinly drizzle it into the splash of the hot water tap as it fills the sink.

.
This is more fun than it sounds and makes washing up more adventure than chore.

There, my work here is done here back to the sink, many a green scrubby things have given there lives to bring you this news.
.
I always put cups plates and breakfast bowls face up so as to avoid the capillary action too :-)
