Homemade dishwashing detergent: costs pennies, but cleans just as well as a professional one

Dishwashing detergents are good in every way except for the price. They have one more drawback - the chemical composition and surfactants in particular.

They say that they are difficult to wash off, especially from plastic. There is a product that washes no worse than professional gels, but is cheaper and safer.

A homemade dishwashing detergent will cost pennies.

To do this, it is enough to keep a supply of mustard powder on hand, which copes well with fat and does not spoil the dishes.

It was mustard that food service workers used to wash dishes in Soviet times, and in some places they continue to do so to this day.

In this case, the benefits and savings are more than obvious, but this is not the case when you have to save on the final result.

How to wash dishes with mustard?

There is nothing easier. The dishes can be soaked in a container with hot water, in which you need to first dissolve mustard powder.

The calculation is approximately as follows: for every liter of water add one teaspoon of mustard.

Overdose in this case is not dangerous, unless there is an individual intolerance to this product.

You can wash everything with mustard: from plates and cups to pots and pans.

If you don’t have any powder, you can use ready-made mustard that has been stagnating in the refrigerator.
