Tips
I put hot water, dish soap and put it on the burner to cook! cook for a few minutes and it will losen the burnt on food.
I know they look funny and make your hands sweat, but they keep your skin from getting dried out from the soap and they also allow you to use higher temperature water than you normally would be able to stand.
Make your dish water as hot as you can stand (maybe even hotter), then place the dishes in the water to soak for approximately 15 - 20 minutes. The hot water, along with the dish detergent (and a small amount of bleach) will break down and make for easier cleaning.
I read recently that your kitchen sink is dirtier than your toilet! If you really want to have clean dishes clean your sink on a daily basis!!!!
To add to the first post about dirty kitchen sinks, I suggest cleaning it in one of two ways (or both): When making dish water, add a few drops of chlorine bleach to the water (this is an effective way of cutting down on cold and flu germs). 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.
