In order to keep the kitchen tidy and beautiful, many “home-cooked women†usually put dishes, knives, cutting boards, etc. in the kitchen cabinet; others also put these utensils in the corners or put them together because of the small space in the kitchen.

Set up a dish rack to save hygiene Many families are used to putting washed bowls and saucers together in kitchen cabinets. This is not conducive to the ventilation and drying of dishes. The newly washed dishes are stacked upside down and it is easy to accumulate water. The cabinet is closed and not ventilated, and the water is difficult to evaporate, which naturally causes bacteria to germinate. Some people like to dry the bowl with a dry rag after washing the dishes. However, there are many bacteria on the rag. This seemingly "clean" approach is counterproductive. In addition, the dishes are tied together, and the dirt on the bottom of the previous dish is all on the next dish, which is unsanitary. Experts suggest that a dish rack can be placed next to the sink. After the cleaning is completed, the dishes are placed vertically and the bowl is buckled on the shelf, which will quickly make the dishes dry naturally, which is both trouble-free and hygienic.

Some people are used to putting a clean cloth on the chopsticks to prevent dust. In fact, just rinse it with water before use, and it will prevent the moisture from spreading. In addition, it is not advisable to place the kitchen knife in a non-ventilated drawer and a knife holder. Also, a knife holder with good air permeability should be selected.
