Top tips for re-organising your pantry
It's the school holidays get your kids involved 😳 now that you are in pantry cleaning mode👏
Remove
Take everything out.
Discard
Get rid of food that has gone off or is well past its use-by date. 🥺
Regroup
Separate foods into groups of like items, eg baking supplies, spices, spreads, snacks, etc.
Label
Labelling your containers not only looks good, but it also makes it easier to see what you have at a glance.
Rehome
Put your food items back into the pantry, keeping in mind that the foods you use the most need to be the most accessible. eg if you don’t bake regularly, put your flour, sugar and baking powder on the top shelf. Spreads, cereals and everyday items should be easy to access.
Review and declutter seasonally.
