Dish and Song
According to Shelleylyn Brandler, the creator of TaDa! Catering, there are two approaches to the dishes after your dinner. "Before dessert, ask your guests to assist with the dishes. My visitors usually offer, so I don't have to ask. We also have a dishwasher to make things simpler "she explains, adding that she finds methods to make this duty enjoyable. "I like doing sing-alongs and doing the dishes to songs that everyone knows. It's also known as 'dirty dishes and dance' or'song and dish.'"
Allow Time to Pass
Do you feel awkward asking your guests to contribute in? If this is the case, Brandler advises storing your dirty dishes and waiting for a better moment to eat them. "Remove any crumbs from the plates and place them on the counter. Cover them with kitchen towels until you're ready to begin cleaning them "She advises that if you take this way, you should still soak your silverware. "However, I like to finish all the dishes before dessert so that I don't have to worry about it the following day."
Order is Important
If you, like Brandler, prefer to handle the load sooner rather than later, she suggests utilizing her tried-and-true strategy for dealing with a big number of dishes. "My dishwashing routine has always been to soak silverware first, then wash dishes, glasses, then pots and pans," she explains. "In addition, I soap everything on one side of the sink before stacking and rinsing on the other. If you don't have a dishwasher, you'll need a huge dish rack."Disposables Shouldn't Be Knocked Down
You don't have to choose between disposable and porcelain plates. Brandler recommends mixing and matching instead. "There's no shame in using excellent plastic cups and disposable pans for turkey, stuffing, and yams to lighten the burden," she adds, emphasizing the need of choosing high-quality, visually attractive, and recyclable solutions.
