Food will no longer spoil: 5 rules for keeping your fridge clean
You need to regularly clean your fridge and keep track of the expiration date to avoid unpleasant odors and germs. But this is not always enough to keep the appliance clean.
OBOZ.UA has compiled a list of five rules that will help you do this. You will be able to save your time and not spend a lot of effort by following these simple tips.
Take everything out of the fridge
As soon as it's time to go to the supermarket to replenish your food supply, be sure to take everything out of the fridge. First of all, this applies to empty containers or bottles, leftovers, and open cans of preserves. Carefully review the leftovers and immediately throw away what you don't need.
It will also help to make a grocery list so that you don't buy something that is already in your fridge.
Wipe down the shelves
After you've emptied your fridge, you need to prepare it for new food. Be sure to wipe the shelves with a damp cloth dipped in soapy water. If you smell an unpleasant odor, make a vinegar solution.
Use the products you bought
Most people often give in to impulses and buy a lot of food in the store, which then just sits in the fridge waiting to be thrown in the trash.
Try to use all the products in your cooking. Experiment, look for new recipes, and cook something new with what you already have. This way you will not only diversify your diet, but also save money.
Give away food
If you see that your food is about to expire and you don't have time to do anything with it, it's best to give it to those in need. You will help others and keep your fridge clean.
Buy less
It sounds simple, but buying less is actually the hardest step. We always think we need everything in the store, but then it turns out that we could do without it.
To avoid excessive purchases, write a grocery list before each trip to the store and buy only what you really need.
