Does washing dishes in the cold seem like punishment? With these 4 desi ‘Jugaad’ the work will be done in minutes, even your hands will not get cold

News India Live, Digital Desk: Rest assured, you are not alone. In the harsh cold of December-January, coming out of the quilt and touching cold water seems no less than a punishment. On top of that, if there is too much oil and spices in the food, then that grease accumulates on the utensils as if Fevicol has been applied. Keep rubbing, but the lubrication does not go away and the hands become numb separately.

But don’t worry, today we have brought some ‘smart methods’ for you, by adopting which you can easily deal with this problem.

1. Rubber Gloves: Your Best Friend
If till now you considered gloves an ‘unnecessary expense’, then change your thinking. Thick rubber gloves available in the market are no less than a boon in winter.

• Benefit: These not only protect your hands from cold water, but also do not burn your hands when using hot water.
• Tip: Use gloves with good grip so that the soapy utensils do not slip from the hands. This will also keep your hands soft.

2. The magic of ‘Soak’ in hot water
In winter, ghee and oil freeze on the utensils, which is impossible to remove with cold water. Be smart instead of working hard.

• Method: Close the sink drain or run a large tub of very hot water. Add some dish wash liquid in it and soak all the dirty utensils in it for 10-15 minutes.
• outcome: The hot water will melt the grease. All you have to do is gently rotate the scrub and the dishes are clean! The hard work will be halved.

3. Use of ash, vinegar or baking soda
Sometimes soap doesn’t remove stubborn stains or the smell of burnt food. In such situations, grandmother’s remedies come in handy.

• Vinegar and Baking Soda: If there is burnt food stuck on the pan or pan, then add some baking soda and vinegar and leave it. This chemical reaction cuts through the grime.
• wood ash: If found, it is still the best scrubber for burnt utensils. It absorbs grease.

4. Do not let the utensils pile up (Wash as you go)
In the cold we often think, “Let’s wash together later.” This is the only mistake that happens. When the dishes pile up, the work becomes overwhelming and standing at the sink becomes frustrating.

• Hacks: As soon as a spoon or bowl gets dirty while cooking, wash it immediately. Wash the plate immediately after eating food. This will reduce the workload and the lubricant will not get a chance to dry.
