Let your pantry work for you with these easy kitchen organization tweaks.
— Home organization shows can be simultaneously uplifting and deflating with rows of matching containers on every shelf of the pantry and cabinets. Typically they're in a gleaming white kitchen, no less.
Instead of piling bags and digging through the stack to find what you're looking for, containers are stackable and easily movable. One wrong grab can send a cascade of snack bags or granola bars crashing to the floor, but containers keep food in check. For those with deep pantry shelves, a hybrid solution — aka"containers for your containers" — might be necessary. Open-top or open-front pantry storage bins can help group similar items together and allow you to pull out one large container rather than a lot of small jars or canisters. This works well for keeping ingredients such as baking soda, baking powder, vanilla extract and other baking-related items together.
Airtight containers also keep snacks and other loose items from losing their crunch too quickly."If you're taking a long time to consume things and they're going stale," Kay said,"that's a good instance to decant." Bag clips can't maintain an airtight seal, but if you store your half-open bags of Cheez-Its in a sealable container, you're winning the war.
Whether plastic or glass, sealed containers are the best line of defense against rodents and insects. Kay's rule is"the more airtight, the better," but I'll go one further. Containers beat bags every time because I have yet to meet a mouse, ant or moth that can penetrate a rigid container. And I unfortunately can't say the same for store packaging — even sealed cardboard boxes.
