How to Make Sure your Kitchen is Ready for the Holidays
/
Your friends at Lang's Kitchen & Bath, the bathroom and kitchen renovation experts in Bucks County, know that the holidays are that time of the year when you'll be doing plenty of entertaining. While your entire home will see some foot traffic, the kitchen will probably be second only to the living and dining rooms as a gathering area. By getting your kitchen ready for the onslaught, you can reduce your stress, and spend more of your time enjoying the season along with your guests.
Clean out the Fridge and Cupboards
You don't want to think you are ready for guests only to find out you aren't when they actually arrive. You may open your fridge and cupboards and see plenty of food and spices and think everything's fine. You might want to take a closer look though. How long has that butter been in the fridge? Is it a stick of refrigerator odor rather than butter at this point? Was that container of bread crumbs opened innumerable months ago making them completely tasteless and flavorless by now? Make sure you actually have everything you think you have by checking everything and replacing anything that needs it.
Clean Your Appliances
If some grease leaked out of a baking pan the last time the oven was used, you could end up choking your guests out of your home in a cloud of smoke when you heat it up to cook the holiday turkey or ham. Clean your oven, dishwasher and toaster oven if you have one. Wipe down the inside and outside of your microwave as well. Remember that the top of the inside of a microwave is a notorious gathering spot for all sorts of nasty stains and bits of food from when reheated items got a little too hot.
Make Sure You're Stocked Up
If you were paying attention earlier, you've already checked to make sure that what you already have is still good for human consumption. Now make sure you have everything you need. You definitely want to make sure you don't run out of any staples like butter, milk, eggs and anything else that practically any recipe for anything calls for. Also, be sure to think about the less obvious stuff. Things are likely to be a mess by the time the night is over. Do you have enough dish soap and paper towels? How about stocking up on Ziplocs or having Tupperware available for leftovers? Make your night easier by thinking about this stuff ahead of time.
