Lifepacks with which you can perfectly organize the kitchen space
The usual arrangement of pieces of furniture in the kitchen seems convenient to us, but if we plunge into reflections, it turns out, for example, that these cans are out of place here, but there is no useful area, and the covers are not very good in sight. Where to remove them? After all, the kitchenette is not as big as we would like.
If you start thinking about all this seriously, then you can catch a not weak "sadness". And you just need to understand that someone has already solved all these issues. Let's not waste time reinventing the wheel when the rocket has already been invented: just use ready-made ideas!
Even at the stage of selecting kitchen furniture, you can think of such convenience as a cutting board over a garbage container.
You no longer need to tilt the board, move it somewhere, peel off crumbs from it: they can be easily thrown into the hole provided for this
Alternatively, there are cutting boards that fit onto the sides of the sink. Clean around, not a single crumb on the floor during the work process!
Another simple solution for a small kitchen and for those who are obsessed with saving space. We purchase inexpensive metal or plastic shelves and attach them to the inside of the cabinet doors.
It is convenient to put in such baskets what should be literally at hand: opened, saw, took
Corner sinks are often inconvenient not because of their location, but because a lot of space is lost under them. Every centimeter of the room works for zealous owners!
A rack with flat round shelves can be made to order.They rotate around the axis, everything is in order on them, and any object is easy to reach by simply turning the plane
Having started talking about cabinet doors, do not forget that you can not only hang baskets on them.
From the inside, the doors are also quite useful for themselves: you can hang rails, hooks on them, place a slate board on which it is convenient to write menus and recipes
Are there still those who like to use printed or handwritten cookbooks? And there is a life hack for you!
Clothespin hanger will work great in the kitchen
Anyone who has a lot of all kinds of cleaning products is always wondering where to put them all.
All duck-type containers can be placed on the rail located under the sink
How simple: bottles tend to roll out on the shelf, which excludes the option of putting something else on the same shelf. How do you like this device? And nothing rolls and space is saved
You can write separate articles about storing cereals, but this option is incomparable
A question for those who have a great variety of spices or dried herbs: where do you store them, if, according to the recommendations, it is better to do it in a glass container? We don't know how you solved this problem, but here is a convenient solution that will suit many interior styles.
Beautiful cans will not spoil the look of the kitchen
Back to the question of cutting boards. The only way to replace it later? Probably, such a built-in option initially assumes the possibility of replacement
But this life hack will be appreciated by those who do not like to launder stove, especially if you have to cook a lot, as during the conservation period.
Foil in rolls can be used like this: and after the end of cooking it is simply removed and thrown away
Old rake, or new, it doesn't matter - any can be put in order and hung on the wall, of course, without a handle.
Glass glasses on such an impromptu railing look charming
Spice jars can hang anywhere on metal surfaces if a magnet is glued to the bottom. They will look creative on the refrigerator door
Culinary life hacks: keeping and preparing food is simple
We organized the space, now let's see what interesting things can be done with food. Someone still does not know how to store bananas, and someone does not figure out how to extend the "life" of a cookie, which for some reason quickly becomes stale. But everything is so simple!
Original ice, easy and fast
Ice can be not only water, but also other liquids, including coffee, liquid chocolate, and even ghee. Also tasty ice floes are made from lemon slices in water, and if you freeze yogurt with sticks sticking out of it in ice containers, you get a delicious little ice cream. It seems to be a simple trick, but very useful.
It is best to cut up various fragrant and healthy herbs, pour ghee over it and leave it in freeze. One additional cube will add amazing flavor to the dish.
Mistresses, how do you beat the meat? Many people have a problem with the fact that the thin layer of the chop breaks, the fibers stick to the hammer. It turns out that this can be avoided with polyethylene. If suddenly the polyethylene breaks through, it is simply replaced with another.
Put the bag on a piece of meat, and you can beat it heartily
Storing bananas: wrap the tip of the bunch with tape or cling film
By the way, bananas are not stored in the refrigerator, they spoil there many times faster.
And here is the secret of cooling any drink without diluting it with melting ice: freeze grapes separately and use them as ice floes
Peeling ginger is tricky due to its fun shape. But the spoon copes with such work without difficulty.
Tired of defrosting minced meat for a long time? No need to suffer, immediately pack it in small bags, giving the portions a flat look using a rolling pin already in the closed bag. So it is convenient to store minced meat, and immediately take the right amount
Sponge cake and any pastry can be thinly cut with a thread: we wrap it with a thread in the right place and pull it together until it is completely cut
Another tip for keeping cookies soft and fresh is to put a couple of apple slices in the cookie bag. Oatmeal cookies from such manipulation become much softer and more tender in taste!
Delicious and quick omelettes of the most delicate taste are obtained if a raw egg with spices and herbs is placed in a bag. And in a bag it is dipped in boiling water for a minute or two
You can freeze a lot of dumplings by making tiers in the freezer using mugs or jars
Is the milk running away? And we do not run away. A wooden spoon across the pan prevents him from escaping
Life Sciences to Help Clean Kitchen Utensils
There are some helpful tips for those who put a lot of effort into creating and maintaining a clean kitchen. Let's see how and what can be cleaned using life hacks.
Baby leather oil transforms chrome surfaces from dirty to clean and shiny.
Apply oil to a cloth and wipe the mixer
Foil is convenient for cleaning metal, glass and aluminum surfaces
Another very common problem is a leaking garbage bag. Where its tightness disappears with obvious integrity from the lower edge remains a question of the century, but it is unacceptable to tolerate a dripping fetid muck. We just put the crumpled newspapers on the bottom of each garbage bag. They will absorb all liquids that run down to the bottom of the waste container.
Cleaning the blender is also not as difficult as it seems: pour a little water and a few drops of liquid detergent into it, press "on." and in a minute everything is clean! All that remains is to rinse everything.
We also do not ignore the oven: at night we wipe it with ammonia, in the morning we go through it with a hard sponge and rinse it.

You need to put a bowl of lemon juice or acid diluted in water for 5 minutes in a working microwave. Then we take out the saucer, and simply wipe the walls with a damp cloth.

Life fakes: how to get rid of unpleasant odors?
The first among kitchen helpers is vinegar. If an unpleasant odor of any character soars in the kitchen, and the cause of the "aroma" has been eliminated, it is vinegar that can expel the stench. It is poured into a frying pan and put on low heat. The vents are still open!
Those who cannot stand the smell of vinegar can simply burn the dried lemon or tangerine peel. Such a ritual will completely remove unpleasant odors, replacing them with a tart citrus aroma.
An unpleasant smell from a thermos is removed with a bang, if you pour 2-3 tablespoons of rice inside. Rice is poured with water and shaken well. After a few minutes, the rice is thrown away, and the thermos is washed with hot water.
The bad smell in the refrigerator easily loses its position if you put a couple of plates of baking soda there.
