Hey!!! Love this series!!! Can you make one about cross contamination? Making meat freaks me out because I feel like I contaminate everything while I clean it
The best tip is to just live with it and just be generally, but not perfectly, clean and tidy. You'll live, and get stronger for it. When you eat outside, there's probably a tooonnnnneee of cross contamination. You haven't died.
I will be working as a Pantry Cook at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Sacramento. Therefore, I believe this video would be a valuable resource for me when it comes to organizing the pantry area.
Loved the video, but you use so much plastic😭 for any beginners: if you absolutely must use plastic bags use refrigerator bags instead of ziplocks, they use way less plastic, tho dont use it for liquid stuff, it has less plastic=it's thinner. Or better than using plastic bags use what you already have at home. You probably buy yogurt, icecream or some other stuff that comes with plastic containers, after finishing your product, use them for storage of your other foods. Plus plastic containers are great for freezer. Same thing in glass pickle etc. jars/containers too, you can reuse them, but dont put them in freezer or they may break. Just wash them like your other cutlery or containers. For opened pakaged items, instead of using a ziplock bag and trashing it after, use garbage bin bags(not scented) or plastic store bags(not the paper ones). So you can reuse them as garbage bags and not waste extra plastic. SAVE THE WORLD FOLKS
@@melindagoh739 Considering how often the plastic products need to purchased, zero waste alternatives are cheaper in the long run. And many of these can be DIYed. You can find many youtube videos for that
Good tips but why so much single-use waste though? I haven't used cling film / wrap or single use zip-lock bags in over 15 years - who needs them when you have containers and plenty of bags with seals that products have come in (e.g. frozen berries)? Paper towels are the same, washable cloths are also just as hygienic & much better for the environment. I'm so glad you mentioned the use of jars though! Such a great tip for cheap & reusable storage :-)
can you re-use the ziplock bags after defrosting the meat? I always think that i would need to use detergent to clean any organic materials will be left by the defrosted meat, but this will also degrade the plastic. Any thoughts on this?
My mom reuses most of her plastic bags onece or twice but they aren't infinitely reusable. I would also not refuse one that has raw meat in it since i wouldn't be sure I fully cleaned it.

Good tips. You can also portion your meat by using chopsticks to “cut” them into smaller flat portions in the bags before freezing. I find that reusing paper bags to store leafy veggies keeps them fresh for longer too.
Absolutely appreciate these tips, will definitely adapt a few. Yet, putting stuff in an air-tight container and additionally put the container inside a zip-loc bag is a little overdone, imo.
You shouldn't reuse them. Normally, you are not able to clean them well enough. Instead consider saving plastic in other places. Leftover glasa jars from jams and sauces are easier to clean and don't react with food.
No, can't reuse for other meats. I usually reuse it for throwing bones, food scraps etc, it keeps the smell in when I don't clear the trash on that day.

I keep my butter in an air tight container and flip it upside down ... acts like a butter dish so it’s easy to slice it

I am glad I am not alone! So scared to deal with raw meat!

yes. Also if you're going to buy new containers, might as well buy glass containers. There are many zero waste alternatives you can search for.
Thank you!
* if u can* some of these zero waste alternatives are really expensive!

Either you be a greenpeace volunteer or a cook. You can take both.
Thank you. This really helped me.
This is a very informative series
Love this series!!!!
These videos are very informative, thanks a lot :)
can't seem to find the blade keeper / saver that you mentioned in the video
This was gold!
Good tips, but a lot of them use unnecessary plastic.
Use a lot of ziplock bags. Do u wash and reuse again or throw away after every use.

I learnt a lot of useful tips from this video, thx!
Hi where to get the magnetic strip for the knives in Singapore. Thanks. Great show.
Any well stocked kitchen supply or knife store should sell those.

Super interesting, thank you 🙏🏻
Looking forward to the next one :)
This is v.helpful. Thanks
Organization! Hooray!
The environment! OMG! You're great, but maybe try to promote more eco friendly reusable options please? :3
Just wondering, can you recycle the ziplock bag??? Meaning can we just wash the ziplock bag and re-use it.
Of course you can, especially if you kept mostly dry items inside (no marinated or ground meat, for example).

More baking tips too!
What’s the reason for not covering the green vegetables, that has been wrap in paper towel & put inside container? Please help to explain :)
To allow excess moisture to evaporate = dryer veggies = less rotting and wilting
@@OmnomnomKL let the air circulate,
vegetables that have* been ...
Do you reuse ziplocks for veggies? Or throw each ziplock away? Cos that will be very scary on the amount of plastic disposal!
Can I reuse ziploc bags?
Do you reuse zip lock bags for different batches of meat or do you just throw away after 1 use?
You shouldn't reuse them. Normally, you are not able to clean them well enough. Instead consider saving plastic in other places. Leftover glasa jars from jams and sauces are easier to clean and don't react with food.

Would be cool to see more sustainable and environmentally-friendly options! There's way too much plastic used here
Wash and reuse ziplock bags

So much PLASTIC 😣 Lock n lock, reusable silicone pouch, glass container is much better.
