Detailed explanation-1: -Washing our dishes with just soap and tap water is simply not good enough! This is because this method removes only visible dirt off your dishes and utensils; it doesn’t sanitize nor disinfect your dishes from germs and other forms of bacteria. That is why it is important to use hot water when washing your dishes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dish soap acts as a degreaser, allowing food particles and fat to be removed from your dishes and cooking utensils. Without soap, you may leave behind traces of organic matter-the perfect breeding ground for bacteria, according to both Narvaez and Gerba.
Detailed explanation-3: -Prep-scrape off food. Fill-get some clean, hot, soapy water. Wash-scrub them, under the water. Rinse-wash off all suds and residue.
