So, i took all my mom's vintage cookware after my parents both passed in the last couple years. I have her 1960's Farberware stainless pots and pans as well as a set of Volrath steel mixing bows from the same era. With the mixing bowls, i notice that after i wash them, i turn them upside down to let them drip dry, but after a few minutes, there is still tons of water clinging to the entire interior surface.
It will dry eventually, of course. But this doesn't happen on other materials, such as glass, plastic, wood, or even a lot of other steel. It happens a little on the Farberware, too, but to a far lesser degree. Is this just how stainless steel works? Is it the vintage stainless steel or the many years of beating eggs, perhaps? Am i not cleaning it well enough? Thanks for any thoughts on the matter.
EDIT: I should indicate it's not that big of a problem, except that i often neglect washing dishes immediately, so if i want to cook and i need to wash, i want to quick hand wash a bowl, flip it over to drip dry, and have it ready to be filled again in a couple minutes, without water still all in the bowl. After about 10 minutes, they seem to be a lot better, but not sure why water doesn't bead up and drip away pretty quickly.
