Organising utensils in your kitchen can make meal prep more efficient and enjoyable.
Watch this little video to see how to organise your utensils.
Here are some simple tips to help you declutter and organise your utensils:
- Declutter First: Start by emptying out your utensil drawer or container and sorting through your utensils. Discard any broken or unused utensils, as well as duplicates.
- Divide and Conquer: Divide your utensils into categories, such as cooking utensils, serving utensils, and everyday utensils. This will make it easier to find what you need when you need it.
- Choose the Right Storage Solution: Depending on your kitchen layout and available space, you can store utensils in a drawer organiser, a utensil holder on the countertop, or even hang them on a wall-mounted rack.
- Keep Everyday Items Handy: Store frequently used utensils, such as spatulas, spoons, and whisks, in a convenient location near the stove or prep area for easy access.
- Utilise Drawer Organisers: If you’re storing utensils in a drawer, invest in drawer organisers to keep everything neat and tidy. Consider adjustable dividers to accommodate different utensil sizes.
- Maximise Vertical Space: If drawer space is limited, consider hanging utensils on a wall-mounted rack or installing hooks inside cabinet doors to make the most of vertical space.
- Label or Color Code: To make it even easier to find what you need, consider labelling utensil holders or using different coloured holders for each category of utensils.
- Regularly Declutter: Every few months, take some time to reassess your utensil collection and declutter any items that you no longer use or need. This will help keep your utensil storage space tidy and clutter-free.
By following these simple tips, you can streamline your kitchen workflow and create an organized and efficient space for all your cooking and serving needs. Say goodbye to rummaging through cluttered drawers and hello to a well-organized utensil collection that makes meal prep a breeze!
