  19. Washing Dishes

  20. Step 1: Scrape food off dishes • Put the food in the garbage.

  21. Step 2: Pre-rinse Dishes • Get any large food chunks

  22. Step 3: Stack dishes in groups • Groups dishes by plates, silverware, pots, knives, etc.

  23. Step 4: Wash by groups in HOT soapy water. • Start with the cleanest items first such as silverware, plates, and other dishes. This will keep your water cleaner longer. Save the pots and pans for last.

  24. Step 5: Rinse in HOT water. • Make sure you get ALL of the soap off of the dishes. If you don’t, it makes people sick.

  25. Step 6: Dry & put away dishes. • Carefully dry the dishes. Put them in their proper place so they can easily be found.

  26. Other Dish Washing Tips: • Let dirty pots and pans soak in hot water to make scrubbing easier. • Start with one sink of hot soapy water, use the other side for rinsing. • Use the HOTTEST water your hands can stand. • Knives should be washed separately. NEVER drop knives into soapy water– someone could get cut! • Sticky peanut butter and shortening should be rinsed with HOT water first, then scrubbed with hot soapy water.
