On weekdays, I make quick, tried-and-true recipes the whole family likes, but on Sundays, I get to pick what we eat for dinner with no stipulations. Maybe the lasagna I’ve been craving or chicken biryani. I look forward to cooking, but the hard truth is that cooking and cleaning go hand in hand, and I am left with lots of dirty pots and pans to wash.
After loading the dishwasher, my husband moves the Dutch oven and cast iron skillet (two kitchen workhorses we love) into the sink, hoping that a good long soak will loosen stuck-on foods. Unfortunately, soaking is never enough to lift all that burnt-on stuff.
