What is the best homemade dishwasher detergent recipe?
Alright, I live in an area with hard water.
I've tried using homemade dishwasher soap usually
1 part borax, 1part washing soda, 1/2 part rock salt and citric acid.
Given that the dishes don't come out clean and they have a haze on them I use vinegar as a rinse agent still cloudy.
Any other recipes out there that might work better? Thank you

It's actually pretty easy to whip up a homemade dish detergent, and doing so not only helps you avoid plastic bottles, it also keeps questionable chemicals out of your kitchen.
Ingredients
1 cup Borax
1 cup Arm & Hammer Washing Soda
1/2 cup citric acid
1/2 cup salt
Instructions
Put all ingredients in an airtight container, and shake to mix.
Use 1 T per load.
Use 2 T of white vinegar as a rinse aid.
