The Secret to Cleaning Your Stainless Steel Sink (The Lunch Lady Way)

In almost every kitchen I have ever worked in, that stain is not your sink rusting. It is iron that came off something else and is sitting on top of the steel, and once you know that, it comes up in about a minute. I am Mrs. Doris. I spent thirty-five years behind a school lunch line in Scioto County, Ohio, feeding four hundred children a day out of a kitchen a man from the county could walk into and inspect without warning. The sink in that kitchen had three basins and a rule for the order you used them in, and that rule is why a school sink stays right and a home sink does not. In this video: why rust spots appear on a stainless steel sink that is not rusting, the wash-rinse-sanitize order and how to do it in one bowl, the three things I clean a sink with for about ten dollars a year, how long you may leave a powdered cleanser on stainless before it does harm, where the smell under your sink actually lives (it is not the pipe), how to take hard water off a faucet head with plain vinegar, and the eleven-second step almost everybody skips that stops water spots before they start. Also, plainly, what never goes in a stainless sink: steel wool, bleach a cast iron pan left overnight, and the rubber mat. #stainlesssteelsink #cleaningtips #lunchlady
