    Recipes should list what equipment you need. This is not unreasonable.

      I worked in such a place once. The dishwasher was always running at max capacity, but it wasn’t fast enough for the manager who kept yelling at me. No one but me stayed in the dishwasher position for more than three days. Eventually they brought in an old “specialist” dish washer from years back, and he showed me the “right” way to do it.

      This guy seriously loaded the dish rack onto the conveyor, then sprayed the dishes with a hose while forcefully dragging the rack through the dishwasher in five seconds instead of the standard minute. The dishes weren’t even close to clean, it was disgusting.

      They were under new management a couple of months later.

        I was told not to complain about dirty dishes at a part time job once, because they couldn’t get anyone to wash dishes otherwise. The guy complained when I put steam pans with caked garbage inside back on the dish line.

    This one of the reasons that most of the recipes I try are one pot/pan recipes, there’s way less to clean up. I enjoy cooking but have executive dysfunction issues and will leave all those dishes in the sink for weeks on end.

      Honestly, cooking while cleaning and being efficient with dishes is a very unappreciated skill. I cook up stuff where I can rinse and throw it directly in a dishwasher, or use just one pan or one pot, clean knives and spatulas after use and put them back.

      You end up spending like 5 minutes doing the extra dishes where this doesn’t work out.

        I specifically search 1 pot recipes and try to minimize the number of things I need to dirty to make something.

      This is why I like my dual level countertop air fry/oven. Just line the pans in aluminum foil, oil, toss some protein on the bottom tray and some potato’s and veggies on the top and hit bake. Then wash the cutting board etc and it beeps that its done and straight onto a plate, gtap the foil and toss it if it’s too dirty and the pans are nice and clan

    One of my nephews is this. Cooks something but in the process used a lot of pots and pans and utensils, and didn’t bother washing up afterwards.

    Flashbacks of my childhood. My folks owned restaurants and they had no one working the dish machine for lunch. I would come in right from school this and a list of prep work.

    I would catch up right around the dinner rush to do it all over again times 3… Needless to say my childhood and teens was my head in a giant sink scrubbing.

      I was a dishy in my youth as well. The trick is to organize the pile, and spray it down to loosen the gunk.

      Oof this hits home. I grew up on a ranch and always kinda resented having to work my whole childhood while other kids got to screw around but… being in a dish pit every day… I think I feel better now. Stay strong fellow child laborer💪

    Me walking in my kitchen after my wife is done cooking.

    She is incapable of doing the “clean as you go” method. If I try to help with that she gets pissed at me for washing something she wasn’t done using yet.

    the best recipes have no more than 3 ingredients, and the instruction is literally to just mix them cold.

    yeah it sucks. but next time you cook that recipe or something similar you’ll have a better idea of which dishes you need, yeah? plus having fewer dishes to wash can be extremely motivating, lol
