Rather than spend tons of time hand-drying your dishes—or letting them sit in the dishwasher for three days until they dry, as one user commented—Babs shows us an easy trick to speed up the process.
According to Babs, don’t waste your time hand-drying your dishes. Simply grab a terry-cloth dish towel. Then, at the end of the cleaning cycle, place the towel within the door of the dishwasher and close it. All you have to do is wait five minutes, and bam—the dishes are dry and ready to be put away!
