It is important to change your dishes and kitchen tools from time to time.
This is necessary to ensure that all things in the kitchen function well, as well as to maintain food preparation safety and prevent germs from getting into the food.
Some items are recommended to be replaced once a year, and some - as they wear out. Let's look at this topic in more detail.
Stainless steel pots and pans
Housewives call such dishes the most durable. But if the handles weaken and the food burns, then you should think about buying new kitchen equipment.
Non-stick pans also need to be replaced if the surface becomes too scratched and food constantly sticks.
Cups and plates
If there are chips or cracks on them, it's time to get rid of them. Such things usually accumulate a lot of harmful microbes.
Wooden instruments
It is advisable to update them once a year.
In addition, you need to get rid of such things early if they are deformed or cracked.
Knives
If the handles are not holding well and sharpening the blades no longer helps, then it means it’s time to buy new knives.
Sponges
You can't do without sponges for washing dishes.
But such things should be changed as often as possible, as they are an excellent breeding ground for bacteria. It is advisable to use a new sponge every week to wash pans and cups.
Earlier we told you how to clean old plaque from cups.
