Step 1: Scrape off Excess Sauce
Using a blunt knife or spoon, gently scrape off the excess sauce. Don't rub too hard—you want to avoid forcing the sauce further into the fabric.
Step 2: Make a Stain Removal Solution
Mix one tablespoon of liquid dishwashing detergent with two cups of warm water. You can use a regular kitchen dishwashing detergent that is used for cleaning dishes.
Step 3: Apply Solution to Stain
Dip a cloth or sponge into the stain removal solution and dab at the stained area until it's covered with the solution.
Step 4: Allow the Solution to Soak
Allow the solution to soak into the fabric for up to 15 minutes before rinsing the area with cold water.
Step 5: Launder Item
Launder the item as usual in the washing machine with a mild liquid laundry detergent.
Step 6: Dry the Item
Hang the item out to dry in the sun.
