Shelf for the under sink

The kitchen often hides many places that could be optimized for better use of space, and even if you tend to think that it would be enough to simply put in order a few drawers or, worse, that cabinet in which all the pots are kept in a disorderly way, the reality is that, at times, in addition to the disorder, there is also the ability to know how to put a shelf where there was not before . Our advice in this regard? Optimize the space under the sink which, especially if yours is a kitchen with a few years on its shoulders, will almost certainly constitute an "empty" space in which to put things in bulk. In reality, the space under the sink is not only very useful, but it is often really large and unused, so much so that many modern solutions provide for management of the under sink by default. If this is not your case, a small and inexpensive shelving in plastic or metal alloys could be the ideal solution to carefully cram a bit of everything: from canned goods to detergents, passing through small pots or pans. A new vision of unused space that will change your life!


Organizer for pots

And speaking of pots and pans in disorder! An excellent idea (also efficient as a solution under the sink), could be to buy a tool that allows you to store them neatly, both horizontally and vertically, thus avoiding those piles of cookware that, all too often , crowd the most remote ravines of our kitchens. With a pan organizer, on the other hand, you can avoid any problem, also significantly increasing the average life of your cookware. A problem, in fact, that afflicts the pans and pans is that of poor conservation: bumps, grease, dents are in fact harmful both to the outside of the pans and to their cooking surface which, if not smoother and perfectly intact, it could begin to lose pieces or, worse, contaminate the food. By putting everything away carefully, however, you will not only give your kitchen a more tidy and “liveable” look, but you will also ensure that your precious pans last a long time.


The tool bar

Trivially we could say that you start from here to keep your kitchen tidy, and it would be very true! A tool bar is really at the basis of the care of your workstation, and helps not only to keep everything tidier and cleaner, but also in safety, avoiding having to open various furniture and drawers in the middle of a preparation. Thanks to this handy bar you can keep ladles, spoons and other convenient tools at hand to always keep at hand, as well as spices and the like to embellish your dishes. Just be careful to keep it clean of grease and dust!


Under-sink shelf

Convenient and easy to install, an under-sink shelf is ideal for keeping your cleaning products that, normally, are stacked at the edges of the sink, or worse. Thanks to this practical sliding shelf, products such as soaps, sponges and rags can be stored with order and care. Equipped with an adhesive fastening system, comfortable but durable, this shelf is coated in polytherm, so it can last over time and not be subject to wear by dust or water. Able to hold up to 2 kg, it is a quick and convenient solution to give your washing station a touch of order and harmony.


Pantry shelf

Cereals are one of the most insidious foods you can keep in your pantry. Like rice or - worse - sugar, they tend to scatter around the furniture, and a distraction or a bad closing of the boxes is enough to make a disaster. If, like us, you love order and cleanliness and fear the invasions of insects typical of the summer in much of the country, then the convenient and excellent solution can be to arrange the cereals in a convenient and practical dispenser which, in addition to to help you partition the right amount for breakfast, it will also help you avoid waste and keep the product fresh and crunchy. There are all kinds of them on the market, but we suggest you buy the double dispenser from United Enternainment, in metal and plastic and able to serve two different types of cereals thanks to its double dispenser, all for less than 30 euros. ! Priceless!


Food containers

It might seem trivial, but the organization of a kitchen starts from the way where food is stored and arranged in one's pantry. “Trivial” because the solutions in this sense are numerous and it would seem obvious to turn to the first economic product available on the market where, after all, plastic containers of all shapes and sizes have always been piled up. But then which one to choose, and above all why? Our proposal is to opt for a stackable system, in order to maximize storage. Transparency is also an important factor, because it allows you to immediately check the quantity and state of the food (as well as, of course, to make us understand immediately what is in the container) and, finally, we suggest choosing glass, not only because it is a more durable and easier to wash material, but also because the risk of mold and contamination is lowered, especially if we consider the wear of the plastic and the possible release of microplastics. An ideal choice? With Brabantia's Tasty + line, you can't go wrong! Excellent quality, for products also suitable for washing in the dishwasher.


The organizers for the drawers

And since we talked about order: it will happen to everyone to open the drawers of the his own kitchen noting, not without sadness, that an uncontrolled disorder reigns in them. The larger tools fit together with the smaller ones, cutlery that mixes, the smaller objects that get lost in a chaos of metal and plastic with the risk, moreover, that to get the right tool you cut yourself with something sharp (and misplaced). An excellent idea is to opt for special containers, designed specifically for drawers, and whose function is to organize and separate the different tools by size (or hazard). Those from Addis, in rigid plastic, are a must for quality / price ratio, and are sold in convenient packs of 3 with capacities of 1 liter, 1.5 liters and 2 liters. Enriched by an internal base with a soft and non-slip surface, they are also equipped with comfortable external feet to prevent any “slippage” in the drawers. An economical choice, but very functional!


The spice rack

Learning to cook using spices properly is what can make the difference between an amateur kitchen and a gourmet. Mind you, we are not saying that this is enough to make you star chefs, but simply that you often forget how much difference adding a "touch of class" can make to the preparation of any dish, so that a good spice (if well dosed) can give a renewed liveliness even to a "banal" plate of pasta. That's why having a good collection of spices at hand, carefully answered and stored, can be a nice turning point for your kitchen, and if you want to follow our advice, a good proposal is that of The Gourmet Collection: 12 glass jars with cork stopper, arranged in a sober and functional wooden spice holder. Moreover, the set arrives at your home with jars already full of excellent spices, including oregano, thyme, curry and Himalayan salt, all already properly labeled.


The brushes for pots

Taking good care of your cookware is a fundamental part of a good kitchen. Not only because good pots can often cost well over a few euros but also and above all because through proper cleaning, food contamination can be avoided. Too often we rely on banal plastic sponges, or metal nets that are not always suitable for the delicacy of certain surfaces which, especially if coated with a non-stick base, can irretrievably scratch your cookware. A good idea, therefore, may be to equip yourself with special cleaning brushes with hard bristles, not only very comfortable to grip but also very efficient in descaling the most stubborn dirt. The choice, even here, is immense but as regards our choice, we suggest the excellent Mr. Siga brushes with hollow handle, in which the detergent for washing can be loaded in order to minimize waste and increase efficiency. . Sold in pairs, they are among the few to have a replaceable head that allows reuse over time, which for less than 17 euros per pair is a real bargain.


A set of kitchen knives

There is no kitchen without a chef and there is no chef without his knives. Knives are one of the most important, useful and versatile tools of a good kitchen and, therefore, they must be sharp, durable and forged with a high quality steel. A good knife can last for years and in the kitchen it is important to have several and always well stored, in order to avoid the risk of cuts (or worse!). Now, a set of professional knives can cost several hundred euros, an expense that we do not feel we can recommend to those who are perhaps taking their first steps in the world of home cooking, however there are good alternatives on the market that can offer you a good number. of blades at very low prices. We offer you the article designed by Homgeek, who at a price of € 70 will send you a set of 15 pieces at home and also including a scissors and a sharpener, all carefully placed in a beautiful and durable wooden block. Made of 1.4116 stainless steel with high carbon content, they offer an elegant design and a handle with an exposed tang. Sharp and beautiful, they are one of the best of its kind purchases you could make on Amazon.


Tablet holder

Once cookbooks or recipe books were used, today there is the internet, which can easily answer any question relating to recipes, ingredients and dosages. Yet, it must be said, technology and cooking ingredients do not always get along and, especially when dealing with flour, there is always the risk of dirtying or, worse, irreparably damaging your device. Our proposal? A practical and convenient tablet holder with a metal and non-slip plastic base, ideal for keeping your device safe and clearly visible on your worktop. Thanks to this practical and resistant support, you can always keep your tablet at hand, to consult recipes, to film your work or, why not, to cook in the company of a good TV series.
