I wash and dry all cookware by hand... in fact the last time I used
the dishwasher was about three weeks ago when I had company. Mostly I
hand wash and dry everything. It would take me too long to fill the
dishwasher enough to turn it on and before that happens there'd be
things I need to use in there, so I decided it makes more sense for me
to wash and dry everything by hand, unless I have company... and even
then I hand wash all my good glassware, the dishwasher etches good
glassware.
