Someone’s STILL got to do the dishes

Believe it or not, I used to LIKE washing dishes.In the good old days, I had a sink that was under the window to my yard. I could watch Ben and the sheepdogs play out back, or just daydream and I mindlessly washed. Ben is now grown, my sink is on the other side of a breakfast bar, I no longer have sheepdogs (and Clem is not a play-in-the-yard type of dog), and I don’t need that escape anymore. Dishes have become a CHORE.  Oh, I have a dishwasher, and I use it daily. But, it’s just not enough.

WHY do I hate using my dishwasher?

Using my dishwasher should be a no-brainer, and I’m going to sound like an anti-environmentalist here when I say that – when they removed the phosphates from my dishwashing detergent, my dishes and glasses never looked quite as clean as they used to. My glasses have spots, I have to wash my dishes before putting loading them (the food just doesn’t come off), and frankly I’d come to believe that hand washing my dishes again is the ONLY way to get them clean.

The New Kid in Town

Cascade sent me their new PLATINUM with DAWN to review. I wasn’t hopeful. I’ve tried so many before this. Some were better than others, but none did this…

With no scraping or rinsing

When I put a product to the test, I give it my ALL…and by giving it my ALL in THIS case, meant doing as little as possible – no rinsing, no scraping, and a lot of hoping. The BIGGEST surprise was that not only did my dishes and glasses come out sparkling clean, but my dishwasher looked like I got down on my hands and knees and scrubbed it.

How can this be?

Cascade© Platinum Pacs feature an advanced triple action recipe that is specially designed to  leave dishware virtually spot-free and help prevent the build-up of hard-water film on dishwasher walls. These little packets create a clean so powerful that they even help keep your dishwasher machine sparkling and deliver a variety of dish care benefits:

  • Scrubs away tough 24 hour stuck-on food

  •  The chelant is designed to fight Calcium that comes in with hard-water and food to help deliver virtually film-free dishes wash after wash

Gail Simmons from Top Chef and Food & Wine 

Gail Simmons has partnered with Cascade to offer her suggestions for making your dinners look DELIGHTFUL.

It’s  more  than  just  a  great-­‐tasting  recipe,  but  also  perfect  presentation.   Sparkling  dishes,  shining  flat  ware  and  spot-­‐free  glasses  truly  let  you  put  your  best  food   forward  with  culinary  creations  that  pop!   

Gail  recommends  impressing  with  a  Platinum  Presentation:

“The  easiest  recipes  pop  with   unexpected,  gourmet  presentations.    Drizzle  bright  sauces  on  sparkling  white  plates  or  layer   desserts  in  crystal-­‐clean  glassware.  Keep  your  presentation  sparkling  with  Cascade  Platinum,   which  keeps  dishes  perfect  for  anytime  entertaining  and  impromptu  guests.”

She’s even shared an EASY recipe for Panna Cotta (my mouth is watering)
