Dish detergent is a chemical substance found in every home and used constantly. In general, if the dishes are less, we wash them by hand in the dishwasher. That's why we buy both tablets and liquid detergent when we go to the market. Recently, we pay hundreds of dollars a year for these products, which are not very affordable. On the other hand, even if we buy reliable brands, they all contain chemicals.
If you care about nature and your health, you should definitely try these recipes. You can wash your dishes naturally and save both money and time.
