- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Soaking dishes is a corner cutting, making multiple meals to microwave or reheat is lowering your quality and standards.
Single pan dishes have all the same texture, it’s lower quality as well, etc.
Yes, every suggestion you had is one of those.
What corners do you cut with soaking the dishes? In what universe is doing the same thing you'd be doing anyway, just at the same time as another thing, cutting a corner? Pedants are everywhere in this damn thread lmao
You can wreck cooking equipment by soaking them. You just replace it more often and you won’t even put the reason why it’s happening together.
Doing things correctly while not wrecking stuff is being pedantic according to who?
I'd suggest stop using paper cooking equipment. Cast iron, sure, probably don't soak it, but you also shouldn't be using cast iron for things that may need soaking. Anything else, if you wreck it by soaking it... Get better stuff, man.
lol, it’s the cheap stuff you soak since you don’t care about it.
If you soak expensive equipment, holy hell you’re just wasting money, buy the cheap stuff and ruin that.
Soaking a sheet pan is a great way to get it rusty, soaking any multi material pot can cause water to get places it shouldn’t and expand and break stuff.
You don’t soak cooking equipment unless you plan on tossing far sooner than other stuff, sorry. You can water your money replacing equipment every few years while other last decades. It’s a simple concept, time or something else like money, you aren’t saving anything by soaking dishes, despite the lies people perpetuate about soaking. It’s corner cutting that costs you later.
How is soaking dishes corner cutting?
Good food can be reheated and still be good. Meal prep is pretty widely practiced, so there are great recipes out there. And people have been eating leftovers since there have been people.
I mean, if you're really bad at cooking I could see those being issues, but that's why you keep practicing until they aren't issues.
Guy thinks you gotta cook like at a 5 star restaurant every day, or you're cutting corners or sacrificing quality lol.
