Home appliances have been around for decades. But did you know that you can use your dishwasher to cook meals?
It makes sense when you think about it. A dishwasher uses hot water and soap to clean the dishes, then steam to dry them once they're clean. Sounds efficient, right? Why not do the dishes AND cook dinner at the same time?
You won't be able to cook just anything in there, unfortunately. Vegetables and other foods that just need a little steam will work. Proteins, not so much.
When putting food in a dishwasher, of course, it's critical that you seal the food well. No one wants to eat a soapy salmon. Airtight containers are the best though a few layers of foil also work.
Next time you want to impress your partner, you know what to do. Just make sure to try it yourself first to get the hang of it.
