Cook Dinner In Your Dishwasher?

A DishwashersInfo.com piece by Tyler Wells Lynch lists "6 Unconventional Uses for your Dishwasher."  The first suggestion is to use your dishwasher as a steamer to cook fish filets.  It suggests that running a sealed package of seasoned filets through an entire cycle (dry cycle included) sans detergent can produce a tasty steamed seafood entree for your dinner table.

Not surprisingly, a dishwasher can be used to clean more than dishes.  Baseball caps, footwear, tools, toys, sponges, etc.can all be expertly cleaned in one of our favorite kitchen appliances.  I was surprised, however, to learn that a packet of Lemonade flavored Kool-Aid can be used in the detergent dispenser to clean deposits and stains when the dishwasher itself gets dirty.
