Welcome to Pantry 101, where we'll explore the basics of pantry organisation. We will set you on the path to well-organised and efficient storage spaces that will inspire you to cook delicious and healthy food.
Whether you're a kitchen novice or a seasoned home cook looking to revamp your pantry, this guide will walk you through the essential steps of creating a pantry that works for your approach to cooking.
Choosing your space
1. Pantry Shelf
The humble kitchen shelf is often underestimated in its potential. While people's perceptions of what a pantry should entail can vary, starting with a shelf offers a tangible way to get your key ingredients organised displayed in a way that looks great and is easy to use.
When storing smaller items like herbs, spices, and assorted nuts, a well-organised shelf makes cooking so much easier. Utilising vertical space by adding hooks or racks for lightweight items such as mugs or key cooking utensils is a very smart move.
With a touch of creativity and strategic organisation, a simple kitchen shelf can effortlessly transform your cooking and streamline meal prep and inspire you to use a wider range of ingredients.
2. Pantry Cupboard
Transforming a kitchen cupboard into a well organised space where you can find all your key ingredients is a game changer for everyone’s kitchen.
Start by clearing out the cupboard assessing its dimensions and thinking about the ingredients that you want to use regularly. Be honest about the items that are taking up valuable space, and you just don’t use them – it’s worth placing these in a secondary place or giving them away. Use stackable bins or baskets to group similar items together, to maximise every inch of available space.
Don't forget to rotate stock regularly to ensure freshness and prevent waste. Try challenging yourself to use things you have forgotten about or are taking up valuable storage space – it can be fun, a great way to save money, and also helps reduce food waste. With a bit of planning and organisation, a well-stocked kitchen cupboard can make cooking easier and help you create even more delicious and healthy meals.
3. Pantry Larder
Use the ample space by installing additional shelving or racks for vertical storage. Keep perishables towards the front for quick retrieval and rotate stock regularly to maintain freshness.
A kitchen larder can transform into a well-appointed pantry that can make cooking easier and help you create even more delicious and healthy meals.
