I am not the one doing this but someone here likes to eat a lot of Swiss
cheese. They put it on their food and nuke it. The cheese gets overcooked,
IMO and some of it gets stuck to the bowl/plate/casserole.

I use a plastic dish brush to wash my dishes. Sometimes I don't notice the
cheese on there, especially if it's a small amount. The cheese welds itself
to my brush and then I can't get it off.

If I see the cheese, I scrape it off with whatever is handy. Usually a table
knife or spoon. Then to be sure, I rinse it with hot water and run a paper
towel over it to get anything that's left before I wash it.

I guess my question is more about the dish brush. Why does the cheese weld
onto there and how can I get it off? I have to keep replacing the brushes.
Sometimes I can run them under water and pull the cheese off with a paper
towel but this doesn't always work.

Help! Thanks!

if the cheese is so hard to get off then just leave it on there

it gives the brush character

But it also makes the bristles rather ineffective.

Any person that uses a bristle brush to wash dishes is a dunce.

Anyone who lets their gardener move in with them and dirty up the
kitchen and not be told to at least rinse a plate is a dunce.

LOL, wut? I've kinda consciously avoided the Julie circus lately, but

Ditch the brush and use a Scotch-Brite scouring pad or equivalent. Best
I can do. Well...there's always a Brillo pad if you don't care at all
about what you're cleaning and how brutal you are to it's surface.

I have all stainless stuff and have yet to see any stains/food/etc that
won't come off with a brillo pad and some barkeepers friend.

Made a conscious decision to avoid nonstick stuff because I usually forget
to treat it gentle and end up screwing up the surface doing something dumb
like cutting meat inside it.

Brillo kicks ass on stainless steel. Brillo's a tragedy on seasoned
iron or aluminum or copper or plastic or...

Scratches the hell out of Pyrex glass baking dishes too.

I used to oven cook chicken in one. Gave up real soon trying to
clean them up nicely. Now I just use foil and I still don't care
to perfectly clean them.

I have one for cooking chicken and another for making cakes or
such.

I use that non-stick foil for a lot of things!

Brllo or SOS steel wool pads work great with stainless cookware.
Don't use them on any cookware with a non-stick coating.

Cheese will stick to those too.

Simple solution, Julie. YOU are the one buying all this food for
your moochers living in the back house (you idiot). Just quit
buying swiss cheese.

Personally, I think Julie should marry John. Both run a household
with tenants. This would probably work.

Not me! Why pay for something that we get here for free on an hourly basis??
Unless you like meltdowns and back peddling and the cooking of beans and
rice daily.

We both make chocolate too but... I don't think he's my type and... I
already have a guy so...

Just think, you could ride around in an electric ALL over town chasing down
those items you say are not available in your town. Then you and John could
have conversations, with neither of you listening to the other, about how
you are allergic to everything under the sun. Then John could chime in on
how wealthy he is and how he is saving the planet.

Then you both could retreat to the bedroom and do whatever it is attention
whores do in the bedroom.

You won't appreciate this suggestion at all but you *did* ask. Your
issue is not really with the dish brush.

My helpful suggestion: Insist He Who Shall Not be Named (aka "someone
here" aka The Gardener) immediately scrape the plate and then rinse it
under hot water (brush if necessary) so the melted cheese won't get
dried out and stuck to the plate. Then you won't have to worry about
crud in the dish brush or stuck on cheese on a plate.

Soak in soapy water for a day, then use progressively more aggressive Scrubbies and a little more soap, warm running water and Elbow Grease!

And if that fails, call the Police on it! ;-)

Do you have a dishwasher? Put the dish brush in the dishwasher . That works.
