Washing dishes is an action that housewives have to perform every day.

Unfortunately, this procedure does not always result in perfectly clean plates, cups, pans and pots.

This problem makes itself known at those moments when a lot of dirty dishes have accumulated in the sink, so there is simply no time for thorough washing.

However, replacing expensive cleaning products with one cheap and affordable product will make the procedure much more effective.

It can be used in its pure form: the powder will perfectly cope with almost all stains, including dried food residue.

However, it is better to mix sodium bicarbonate with something. It is desirable to obtain a product of soft consistency: it is much more convenient to wash dishes with it.

How to prepare the remedy

You need to take a deep container and pour 25 grams of grated laundry soap into it.

The prepared mass must be filled with hot water. You need to use half a liter of liquid.

Once the soap component has dissolved, add one tablespoon of baking soda and dry mustard into the bowl.

In addition, you need to add a couple of tablespoons of ammonia. This should be done carefully. Hands should be protected, and the room should be well ventilated.

It is advisable to also use a few drops of essential oil for a pleasant scent, like dishwashing gel.

The resulting mixture must be thoroughly mixed. The container with the contents should be covered with something and left untouched for several hours.

The result is a product that resembles something between a gel and a paste in its consistency. Washing dishes with such a mixture is very convenient and effective.
