Dishwasher Soap recipe

I came across this recipe to make dishwasher soap. It looks easy enough. I'll have to get the Borax before I can see how well it works. (We buy baking soda by the Costco size bag to use in the cat box.)

Maybe saving money in the kitchen will help ease the budget for gas and electricity for the air conditioner (our electric bill doubled from last month. OUCH!)


Dishwasher Soap recipe
1 part borax 1 part baking soda
Mix thoroughly, and store in an airtight container.
To use: Add 2 tablespoons per load. Increase proportion of soda for hard water.
Use vinegar in the rinse cycle. (In place of the commercial brand like "Jet Dry".)
