Should You Dry Dishes Thoroughly? 0 8

There is no definitive answer to this question: it all depends on personal preference. Chef Alexander VORONOV shared his opinion: “If you don’t want to see streaks on your dishes, it makes sense to dry them immediately after washing. I know that some of my acquaintances do this, believing that there are residues of detergent left on the dishes. However, in my opinion, after rinsing under running water, there are practically none left.

It is not recommended to store wet dishes in closed cabinets, as increased humidity creates favorable conditions for mold and fungi. In this case, it is better to leave the dishes that are still wet on a towel on the table so they can dry on their own. In any case, the towel should be changed regularly, as microbes can accumulate on it.”
