Organise your kitchen to streamline the cooking, clean-up, and storage processes by implementing these simple tips:<\/p>\n<h2>Think in zones<\/h2>\n<p>Dividing your kitchen up into zones will help you to better visualise where each item of your kitchen belongs. There are three basic zones to consider: the cooking\/prep area, the clean-up area, and the storage area. Ideally, you should be able to find everything you need for your current task without leaving the zone you&#8217;re in, so make sure items are stored in the spot they are used.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prep\/cooking: The prep\/cooking area should extend from the refrigerator to your oven unit and contain everything from cutting boards, measuring cups, and mixing bowls to pots, pans, and bake ware.<\/li>\n<li>Clean-up: The clean-up zone is located near the sink and dishwasher and contains the majority of your dishes and cleaning products.<\/li>\n<li>Storage: Usually defined as the refrigerator\/pantry area, the storage zone will contain the majority of your food items\u00e2\u20ac\u201dboth perishable and non-perishable. In the pantry, consider using baskets to group all the ingredients you need to make a certain meal, including side dishes and dessert, to help reduce prep time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Think in terms of the kitchen triangle.<\/h2>\n<p>Regardless of size, your kitchen layout should create an easy flow between the prep\/cooking, clean-up, and storage areas. Smaller kitchens may use a single-line or L-shaped layout, while bigger kitchens have the advantage of utilising a U-shaped layout, which designates an entire wall to each the cooking, clean-up, and storage zones, or adding an island to increase prep and storage areas.<\/p>\n<h2>Put essentials in easy reach<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s face it: some items are more important than others, and they&#8217;re the ones that should be stored between eye and waist levels. One great way to quickly identify cooking and clean-up essentials is to keep them in plain sight: consider using exposed shelving or keeping your wooden spoons, mixers, and spatulas in a hanging rack above the stove or a bowl beside it. Some people find that cupboards with glass panels make it easier to find what they want to use when they want to use it. And remember: never store heavy pots and pans in high cupboards\u00e2\u20ac\u201dretrieving them from high shelves not only requires a good bit of effort, it can be dangerous as well. It&#8217;s better to keep them in a storage unit below or beside the stove instead.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/kitchen_dishwasher.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-12362\" alt=\"Dishwasher\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/kitchen_dishwasher-120x120.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/kitchen_dishwasher-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/kitchen_dishwasher-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/kitchen_dishwasher.jpg 717w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Let gadgets and appliances make your life easier.<\/h2>\n<p>The ideal kitchen allows you to streamline tasks so that you can use your time more efficiently.
