The kitchen can be a lot of work during the day. However, UAportal has prepared practical tips to help you make the workflow easier but no less effective.

Freshness of vegetables

Store vegetables in airtight containers or bags with a zipper to prevent contact with air. Another approach is to wrap them in a damp paper towel before placing them in the refrigerator to keep them moist. Using a vacuum packer to remove air from the package helps to maintain freshness.

Caring for your appliances

For appliances such as stoves and ovens, it is important to remove food residue that could cause damage or affect their performance. Regularly checking for leaks, unusual noises, or malfunctions can help identify potential problems at an early stage. And most importantly, prevent costly repairs in the future.

Culinary tips for beginners

One of the most important tips is to read and follow recipes carefully, in particular, to measure ingredients accurately. It's also important to learn how to use a knife and how to cut vegetables and meat, as well as how to monitor the temperature and cooking time to avoid overcooking or undercooking.

Food safety

Thorough hand washing before and after handling food, especially raw meat, to avoid cross-contamination is essential. It is equally useful to use separate boards for raw and cooked foods to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria. It is very important to cool leftovers quickly and keep the refrigerator at the appropriate temperature to slow down the process of food spoilage.
