Water Conserving Cleanup

Cathy Lea

Some water poured into a hot pan after serving a meal heats the water and helps keep any remaining food from drying. When you are ready to wash up, add a touch of liquid dish soap to the pan and stir to get suds enough to wash the dinner dishes. If the water has cooled too much after dinner, heat it a little on the stove, but do not let it boil. This method uses amazingly little water and can provide enough suds to clean all of the dinner dishes and flatware in a single pan. Simply rinse with clean water to complete the wash.
