    I tried cleaning dishcloths and sponges in the dishwasher, as it's meant to be equivalent of boiling them so they get sterilised. However when I did it they were covered in food sediment.


    Thank you, Thank you, I thought I dreamt it. Not sure if it is something I will try but I like the french fries made from Madria cake.

    I usually use Asda DW tablets in my little baby tabletop DW which works nicely.

    Occassionally I don't put anything in and just let the hot water do it's stuff and it works fine.

    Use soda crystals and vinegar to rinse through once a week.

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    i once saw a programme wher someone made a homemade smoker out of a dishwasher! apparently the ss interior is excellent for lighting the fire in the bottom and the top basket very handy for puling out to put the food in!! i have always meant to try it but have never got round to it, yet another way fo cooking in a dishwasher!!
