When I googled, the consensus was to wash-as-you-go.
My interpretation is that cooking is an act of creation, and when accomplished, it's over. You don't feel like doing washing up, a non-creation act, because that energy/enthusiasm is gone.
Whereas if you wash as you go, as part of the task, it also uses the energy of creation.
So: not literally time-saving, but enthusiasm-efficiency.
- cup-of-tea 9y agoI reckon it also does save time. The reason is there's plenty of "dead time" during cooking. Waiting for water to boil, sauces to reduce etc. But those periods are not long enough to do much else and your hands will generally be too dirty to do even small tasks. The best use of those little sections of time is to wash up.
