If you cant get everything into the pantry neatly, you might store non-essential items in a more "remote" storage location such as the garage or basement. Basic Pantry Staples: Baking Soda Baking Powder Corn Starch Flour Sugar (Powdered, Granulated and Brown) Yeast Stock (Chicken, Beef, Vegetable) Maple Syrup Cooking Wine Milk Butter Eggs Mustard Lemons (or Lemon Juice) Mayonnaise Garlic Hot Sauce Onions Parmesan cheese Other Handy Pantry Items: Dried Beans Pastas Spaghetti Sauce Canned Soup (Cream of Chicken or Mushroom) Various Cheeses Sour Cream Cream Cheese Frozen Vegetables (usually frozen taste better) Potatoes Celery Carrots.
A pantry that you can depend on is convenient to use and can store up back-up packages for every item you purchased for home use. A simple rule to follow is a systematic storing of additional packs for every product from toothbrushes to tortellini. You can start to have one by having at least three-day food supply for the family and adding a reserve for another person. For bigger or mid-sized pantries, stored food supplies can last for two weeks to a month for a family to survive, especially in emergency cases. The pantry can store packages of fresh foods, powdered milk, fruits and vegetables and other products for everyday use. Having a good monitoring of supplies to be bought draws you from taking a long list of things to buy as what is usually done in traditional home organization. A good storage process in a pantry uses everything purchased and not simply buying a product and after a few months you would wonder why a certain product was bought.
Keeping The Pantry Well Organized Now that you have your pantry cleaned and organized, you will want to follow these few easy tips to keep it that way: 1. Dont buy things that wont get used; this will save money! 2. Do buy only according your tastes, budget and needs. 3. Look for coupons and sale items to keep in your pantry 4. Use your pantry regularly, checking your inventory to be sure that you are not overstocked. 5. If possible, items such as paper towels, paper plates, napkins, etc. that will not expire or become stale, purchase in larger quantities. The Wrap-Up If possible, try to buy reserve quantities of the staple items that you use the most. This will avoid "out-of-stock" items. Having an extra jar of mayo or some reserve cans of chicken and/or tuna salad can come in very handy with a surprise visit from a friend. Be sure to add these items to your shopping list when you break into your reserves. With kids in the house, you might want to consider making a special area and/or basket where you can keep quick snacks and treats handy. This will help keep the kids out the pantry! Homemade trail mix is a great snack and easy to store!
Its also nice to stock a few dinners to make for a friend if they are in need. I came home one day after grocery shopping and my oldest daughter had made soup and bread (refrigerator biscuits) for our neighbor who had learned her grandmother died. As a stay at home mom, this was one area the kids and I could serve and help others. It taught the kids a good lesson in giving. 3. Stock in your pantry: White flour hole wheat flour White sugar Brown sugar Baking powder Baking soda Cocoa Powdered sugar Nuts and seeds Popcorn Cornstarch Yeast -- if you bake home-made breads Again, gear these pantry staples toward your familys needs and tastes. Your items will grow as your recipe base grows and your family establishes a pattern of favorites. 4. I always have chocolate chips in stock, but I keep them in the freezer. Depending on where you live, you may want to keep nuts & seeds in the freezer for freshness too. Well, that should get you started with your pantry staples coupled with some basic pantry organization. To the journey.
