1 cup (250mL)

Borax

Mix 250 ml (1 cup) of borax with 125 ml (1/2 cup) of baking soda.

Fill the machine's detergent dispenser as usual. (Borax, or sodium borate, is a mineral salt. It is used as a degreaser, deodorizer, mild antiseptic and water softener. Look for it in the laundry section of the grocery store.)

For best results, rinse dishes — especially mugs and cups — with cold water before stacking in the dishwasher.
