There is enough stress and fuss in our daily lives – so why worry about minor everyday issues?

To save time and nerves while doing everyday chores in the kitchen, use the advice of the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova .

Oatmeal against odor

Oatmeal is known for its absorbent properties, so if you're having trouble with your fridge smelling bad, place a bowl of oatmeal in it.

Storing bread

To keep your baked goods soft and delicious for as long as possible, try putting a wooden spatula in your bread bin. The wood will help maintain the optimal humidity level inside the container, and the bread will stay fresh a little longer.

Oil for meat grinder

If you need to grind tough meat using a meat grinder or the equipment is not powerful enough, lubricate the auger of the device with vegetable oil - as a result, it will be easier and faster for you to pass the products through the meat grinder.

Storing Garlic

To prevent garlic from spoiling, store it in a bag with salt and dry tea leaves. These components prevent rotting and mold formation.

Milk for potatoes

Don't want your sliced potatoes to darken? Add a few tablespoons of milk to the water where the potatoes are – this way the peeled tubers will remain light and appetizing until the moment of cooking.
