A Genuinely Helpful Kitchen Tip

By Felicia Moran


Cooking is one of our favorite hobbies, we love going into the kitchen and creating tasty meals and treats fro our loved ones. What we don't love, however, is the trail of destruction that we leave behind. How come there's so much mess?

In the past, life was so much easier. There were servants and kitchen staff who took care of all the preparation, cooking and cleaning up. How great would that be now? No cleaning and tidying afterward, just enjoying the meal and not having to worry about the rest.

The lesser classes didn't suffer from this problem either as they could afford neither servants nor expensive meals.
Next time you finish a session in the kitchen have a look around you. There are dirty plates, pans, utensils and a pile of appliances which were meant to save us time, not add to it!

The nearest most of us have to servants these days is a cleaner once or twice a week, and a war zone kitchen isn't really in her job description! So we still stress about how we can continue cooking, but without the mess.

Cooking is one of my great passions in life, tidying up after myself is not. I've tried various things to lessen this chore; most of them didn't work, I'm happy to report that this one did.

Clean as you go is now my kitchen motto. Keep a bowl of hot, soapy water and wash each piece as soon as you've used it. Then when you've finished, there will only be the last couple of things that you've used, so much better than a teetering pile of dirty dishes.

So in future, no more stacking up dirty dishes and leaving them until the end. Facing a pile of dirty pots and pans can be soul destroying, so make life easy for yourself and clean as you go. Now when you've finished whatever you have made, you can sit down and relax, not be stuck at the kitchen sink for a good hour.<
