At some point I learned to clean as I cook, washing each item immediately as I’m done with the step that uses it. If you can get in the habit, it’s so much easier. Never a huge stack to clean and nothing sits there getting stuck on the pot/plate/whatever. Dishes are done before sitting down to eat and there’s only a couple when you’re done eating.
You don’t need any more than 2 cooking vessels be that a pot and pan or 2 pots. If you use more stop it! Also do the bloody dishes I ain’t your mother! How can 1 person use 4 plates and 12 forks before dinner in 1 day!?! How!
How can 1 person use 4 plates and 12 forks before dinner in 1 day!?! How!
I have been asking my wife this for 3 years now. She still hasn’t been able to give a satisfactory answer.
Hey fuck you. “BECAUSE!!!” is a perfectly satisfactory answer
Maybe for you, but I’m the one who does the dishes, if every plate and half the cups are dirty in a single day when I’ve been at work, then I’d like to know how 2 meals used 6 plates and a dozen cups.
My roommate uses every dish in the house daily. Idk how, it’s ridiculous

Don’t judge me!
Even just rinsing before food dries/hardens helps a lot for washing later. That’s what I do.
Dishwashers are a necessity in the kitchen if you have the space. I almost never hand wash a dish.
There are some dishes that should only be handwashed though. Most knives, pots, and pans shouldn’t be dishwashed. Even the ones that claim to be dishwasher safe will not last as long if dishwashed.
If it can’t be cleaned in the dishwasher, it isnt for me. Dont care what the label says. I put every dish through the crucible. If it melts, it’s trashed. If it cracks, it’s trashed. No pussy dishes in my kitchen. Get in the magic scalding water box and quit your bitchin’.
Amen! If they don’t survive the dishwasher then it’s just nature culling the weak from the pack.
I try to just not buy things that can’t be put in the dishwasher.
Ahh yes, the Perfect One-Pot, Six-Pan, 10-Wok, 25-Baking Sheet Dinner.
Yeah, but the food was 🔥!
Can confirm. My Dad is literally a unspoken chef.
Me after every Hello Fresh meal
Hello Mess!
This is my wife. She can make some amazing meals, but never seems to be able to clean as she cooks.
That’s me after just making toast with scrambled eggs
What really baffles me is how people that have dishwashers manage to do this. Like, use bowl/whisk/cutting board/whatever > put in dishwasher. That way, all you have to do is wash your knives while everything else cooks.
What, and bend down?
Shit that’s my fiancee when she makes spaghetti. She’s a professional chef. I have no idea how that makes sense.
The disappointment on his face is the same as mine after too.
Any meal worth eating is cooked like this 🤤
This is absolutely me.

If that’s how your kitchen ends up after cooking, I think you need to learn how to clean as you cook. That, or just stay outta my way.
