Storing Food

Here are some tips on storing food:

• Don't keep packets of bacon flat in the fridge. If you roll them up and store them that way, the rashers won't stick together.
• If you put two sugar lumps in the biscuit tin, they absorb moisture and keep your biscuits nice and crisp.
• To keep bread fresher for longer, put a stick of celery in the bread bin. Renew it once a week (or as soon as it starts to go brown and limp) and you need never have stale bread again.
• To keep carrots moist cut the top off before you store them.
• Don't keep cheese in its plastic wrapping. As soon as you can, take it from the pack and wrap it in foil. This stops it from getting sweaty.
