dishes in the dishwasher? We've run out of tablets but we have basic ingredients to make something I hope. Too many sites quoting american products I've never heard of... thanks

sylviat, do you have washing soda, baking soda, salt and citric acid?

The following recipe which I have NOT personally tried and tested is from Lyn Webster of
http://pigtitsandparsleysauce.co.nz/

DISHWASHER POWDER
1 cup each ofwashing sodaandbaking soda
¼ cup each ofsaltandcitric acid

Mix all together and powderise in a food processor.
Use 1 tbsp per load.
Hint:use white vinegar in the rinse aid dispenser.

Hope that helps and if you do try thise recipe please let us know what you think re how well it works. :-))

Baking powder, about a teaspoon.
