It is unlikely that a modern person would brew tea in a samovar or cook porridge in a cast iron pot, because these items are considered attributes of antiquity.
But, as the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova , says, to this day there are certainly things in the kitchens that are long overdue to be replaced with more functional analogues.
Towels made from fabric absorb odor and if not dried properly every day, they quickly become a breeding ground for bacteria.
Instead of using textiles in the kitchen, buy paper towels and install a stylish holder near the sink to store them.
Even our grandmothers, when brewing tea, covered the cup with a saucer in order to quickly get a strong, aromatic and tasty drink.
Now in stores you can find special silicone lids - they have a vacuum effect, due to which they are sucked in due to high temperature. As a result, you will get your favorite drink not in a matter of minutes, but in seconds.
In the past, after cooking, spaghetti was tipped into a colander along with boiling water and rinsed under cold water.
However, now housewives know that there is no need to rinse pasta – they need to be taken out of the pot of boiling water and transferred directly to the serving dish.
This problem can be solved by purchasing a special spaghetti spoon from any kitchenware store. Its design prevents the spaghetti from slipping and makes it easy to transfer to the plate.
