For an unbeknown reason, i actually read it. I mean wow, who doesnt know how to wash dishes. on a side note, am a chef, have super sharp knives and number one kitchen rule (and thats in a restaurant or my home) is never place a knife into the sink and leave it there, set it to the side or wash immediately.

Leftover scraps go in my mouth ,in the tupperware ,dog bowl or now-days to compost. If you like your knives sharp like me, wash them separate to avoid slicing those water logged fingers. Even with gloves a good knife will cut you before you know it. Then you have to start over =D I dont encourage suds as I want soap in the water Not on top. For Single sinks if theres room I pile the dirty on 1 side and as I clean them I move them to the other ,or set them temporarily on a clean rag aside the sink. =D the ‘clean plate club’ has taught me well.

She adds the bleach to her soap so its ready to go. The germs can transfer if you don't use bleach on your prep dishes.

The hot water, along with the dish detergent (and a small amount of bleach) will break down and make for easier cleaning.

The water can then be used to clean out the rinse side of the sink; or before placing any dishes in the sink to be rinsed, use a low-level chlorine bleach spray cleaner to clean the sink. Be sure to also use it on the faucet and water knobs, too.
