Ahh yes, the Perfect One-Pot, Six-Pan, 10-Wok, 25-Baking Sheet Dinner.
-
Yeah, but the food was 🔥!

Can confirm. My Dad is literally a unspoken chef.

This is my wife. She can make some amazing meals, but never seems to be able to clean as she cooks.
-
Me after every Hello Fresh meal
-
Hello Mess!

-
Any meal worth eating is cooked like this 🤤
-
That's me after just making toast with scrambled eggs
-
What really baffles me is how people that have dishwashers manage to do this. Like, use bowl/whisk/cutting board/whatever > put in dishwasher. That way, all you have to do is wash your knives while everything else cooks.

What, and bend down?
-
It's already full of clean things that I haven't got round to emptying out, yet.

The disappointment on his face is the same as mine after too.

Shit that's my fiancee when she makes spaghetti. She's a professional chef. I have no idea how that makes sense.
-
Because she's used to having someone taking care of cleaning after her. Nothing unusual for people who work in the field (used to be my case).

This is my gf in the Kitchen. Well, this is her in any room in the flat. Somewhat frustrating because she sure as shit didn't treat the flat she lived in with her mates like that...
-
This is absolutely me.

If that's how your kitchen ends up after cooking, I think you need to learn how to clean as you cook. That, or just stay outta my way.

At some point I learned to clean as I cook, washing each item immediately as I'm done with the step that uses it. If you can get in the habit, it's so much easier. Never a huge stack to clean and nothing sits there getting stuck on the pot/plate/whatever. Dishes are done before sitting down to eat and there's only a couple when you're done eating.
You don't need any more than 2 cooking vessels be that a pot and pan or 2 pots. If you use more stop it! Also do the bloody dishes I ain't your mother! How can 1 person use 4 plates and 12 forks before dinner in 1 day!?! How!
I have been asking my wife this for 3 years now. She still hasn't been able to give a satisfactory answer.
What are you on about? Just the other night I had a pan for roasting seeds, a pot for building a sauce, a pan for cooking protein and another pot for cooking my starch. And that's just a Tuesday meal. If I made a dedicated effort to be minimal with vessels, I'd still have to wait for them to cool for cleaning. Also, to all the clean while you cook advocates on here, that's easier to do with a known preparation. When you've Just downloaded a new recipe and you have no idea what you are doing, your often don't have the bandwidth to leave the project and start cleaning.
As someone with ADHD, using too many dishes is pretty standard.
My roommate uses every dish in the house daily. Idk how, it's ridiculous
Don't judge me!
Dishwashers are a necessity in the kitchen if you have the space. I almost never hand wash a dish.
