If you've got sauces all over the kitchen, can't find the vinegar, have four open ketchup bottles, and eight-year-old five spice, it's time to get that kitchen cupboard under control.
If you follow these tips from Oriental superstore Wing Yip, you’ll never have to hunt for a tin again.
- Dump the clutter! Be brutal!
- Do you really need that melon baller you bought in 2005? Is there ever going to be an occasion where you need three cheese graters?
- Donate duplicates or impulse buys to family, friends or charity and relish your extra square inches!
- Check the sell by dates on your supplies at least once a month. You could do this while you’re waiting for the kettle to boil or your rice to cook to make the task less arduous.
- Store things you use every day on easy to reach lower shelves.
- For storage feng shui is essential.
- Group items by type, and for each type to have its own space in your cupboard. Try out these groups.
-Spices and seasoning
-Dressings, oils, condiments
-Cereals, pasta, rice
