A fridge is an important part of every kitchen. Almost every food items that we eat comes from the fridge in the first place as we store them on it. So it is necessary to keep the fridge always clean and hygienic. We do open and close the fridge many times a day, so it is important to keep it organized.
To organize a fridge first we have to clean it well. Take out all the items and remove racks from it. Now clean it and keep aside to dry. Make sure to clean without creating scratches on the glass racks. It is better to switch off fridge before cleaning as we have to keep the fridge open for a long time for organization. Wipe out all dirt from fridge using vinegar and water solution using a cloth.
After it got dry keep back all the racks that was taken out for cleaning. Use separate boxes to store different items on the fridge. This will help the items stay organized and easy for us to choose and take. More than round shaped boxes it is better to use square or rectangle shaped containers to save space and arrange well.
Spread a paper or tissue paper in the bottom of the boxes while storing fruits and vegetables to keep it fresh for long. Fridge organization boxes are available online or can be bought from local markets near you. Vegetables that are already cut can be kept inside a zip lock bag or cover it with a paper. Use air tight containers to store batters.
If you have a small fridge and is unable to use containers opt zip lock bags instead. Leftovers foods are better to keep in areas that we notice easily so that we don’t forget to take it out. To avoid bad odour slice a lemon and keep it in anywhere the fridge. This absorbs all unpleasant smell for fridge. Store meat and fish as small portions according to our need to keep it fresh for long.
