It is unlikely that a modern person will brew tea in a samovar or cook porridge in a cast-iron pot, because these items are considered attributes of antiquity.
But, as Yulia Arkhipova, an expert at the online publication BelNovosti, says, there are still things in kitchens that are long overdue for replacement with more functional analogues.
Textile towels
Towels made from fabric absorb odor, and if they are not dried properly every day, they immediately become a breeding ground for bacteria.
Instead of using textiles in the kitchen, buy paper towels and install a stylish holder near the sink to store them.
Tea brewing saucers
Even our grandmothers, when brewing tea, covered the cup with a saucer to quickly get a strong, aromatic and tasty drink.
Now in stores you can find special silicone lids – they have a vacuum effect, due to which they are drawn inward due to the high temperature. As a result, you will get your favorite drink not in a matter of minutes, but in seconds.
Spaghetti colander
In the past, after cooking, spaghetti was tipped into a colander along with boiling water and rinsed under cold water.
However, now housewives know that there is no need to rinse pasta – they need to be taken out of the pot with boiling water and transferred directly to the serving dish.
This problem can be solved by buying a special spaghetti spoon at any kitchenware store. Thanks to its design, the spaghetti does not slip and is easily transferred to the plate.
