Organizing your spice cabinet can make meal preparation more efficient and enjoyable. Here we have some simple spice cabinet organization tips.
Before you begin, gather the following supplies:
Step 2: Declutter Go through your spice collection and check the expiration dates. Discard any spices or herbs that are past their prime. Also, remove duplicates, and any items you no longer use.
Step 3: Clean the Cabinet Wipe down the inside of your spice cabinet to remove any dust or residue. This will give you a clean slate to work with.
Step 4: Organize by Frequency of Use Place the spices you use most often at eye level or within easy reach. Less frequently used items can go on higher or lower shelves. Group similar items together. For example, keep baking spices together and savory spices together.
Step 5: Use Containers Consider transferring your spices into uniform containers or jars. This not only looks neater but also keeps your spices fresher longer. Be sure to label each container with the spice name and expiration date.
Step 6: Label Everything Label your containers or jars clearly. You can use a label maker or simply write on a piece of masking tape with a marker. This makes it easy to find what you need quickly.
Step 7: Use a Small Basket or Shelf Organizer If you have a lot of small spice containers, using a small basket or shelf organizer can help keep them tidy. This is especially useful for those odd-shaped or hard-to-stack spice containers.
Step 8: Alphabetize (Optional) To make finding spices even easier, you can alphabetize them. It’s a simple but effective way to streamline your spice cabinet.
Step 9: Keep It Maintained Periodically review your spice cabinet to ensure everything is still fresh and to declutter any expired items. Update labels as needed.
