There is enough stress and fuss in our daily lives – so why get nervous over small household issues?
To save time and nerves while doing everyday chores in the kitchen, use the advice of an expert from the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova.
Oatmeal against odor
Oatmeal is famous for its absorbent properties, so if you are faced with the problem of an unpleasant odor in the refrigerator, place a bowl of oatmeal in it.
Storing bread
To keep your baked goods soft and appetizing for as long as possible, try putting a wooden spatula in your bread bin. Using the wood, you can maintain an optimal level of humidity inside the container, and the bread will stay fresh a little longer.
Oil for a meat grinder
If you need to grind tough meat with a meat grinder or the equipment is not powerful enough, lubricate the auger of the device with vegetable oil – this will make it easier and faster for you to pass the products through the meat grinder.
Storing garlic
To prevent garlic from spoiling, store it in a bag with salt and dry tea leaves. These components prevent rotting and mold.
Milk for potatoes
Don’t want your sliced potatoes to darken? Add a few tablespoons of milk to the water where the potatoes are – this way the peeled tubers will remain light and appetizing until the moment of cooking.
