Why do people put bay leaves in cereals: a long-forgotten trick
Small bugs can appear in cereals if the products are stored in open packages, as well as in cases where the room is too damp.
As a result, such cereals can no longer be used in cooking and will have to be thrown away.
Therefore, experienced housewives recommend that when buying porridge, inspect the packaging, and then immediately pour the products into glass jars and close them. However, it is important to keep the packaging hermetically sealed when storing.
You should also add bay leaf to the cereals. The spice will help prevent the appearance of small insects.
But it should be taken into account that bay leaf is not suitable for all cereals.
For example, you shouldn't put a leaf in semolina. In this case, you can only spoil the porridge.
A product suitable for cereals that are often used as a side dish.
This could be buckwheat, pearl barley, millet. You can put a few bay leaves in a jar of pasta.
