Kitchens are one of the most important places in a home, all
conversations at home generally tend to happen around dinner, and kitchen is
pivotal to that. For a kitchen to be a place of warmth and comfort, it needs to
be clutter free, open and spacious. However in our overcrowded urban cities this
seems to be difficult. So, here we bring you some useful hacks to make your
kitchen more sorted.
Put those shower caps to a creative use
Cover leftovers (in the dish) with a fresh shower cap to
protect your food from bugs and other unwanted particles. Also, these caps are
reusable and easier to use than aluminum foils or cling sheets.
Label your containers
While this might seems tedious and irrelevant, but, believe
me, it is far easier to get things done if everything is properly labeled.
Also, you will not be bugged by your family in case one of them is cooking in
your absence. You can even make a décor statement, by creating funky chalkboard
labels etc.
Prevent clogs in kitchen sink
To prevent clogs from forming in your kitchen sink, make
sure to periodically pour boiling water down the drain. This will ensure that
the oils in food products run down the drain.
Make your kitchen odor free
A foul-smelling kitchen can make you lose your appetite.
Vanilla extract can help you keep the foul odor in your kitchen at bay. Put two
caps of vanilla extract into an oven proof dish and then place it in your oven
for an hour at 300 degrees. The smell will spread and fade away the foul odors.
Create Partitions in your kitchen drawers
Sort out your big kitchen drawers by partitioning them. Just
measure out cardboard strips horizontally or lengthwise to fit snugly along the
wall of the drawers, creating partitions to sort your dishes. You don’t need to
buy cardboard, you can just use old cartons or books covers etc.
