How to Clean and Store Cooking Tools and Equipment


1. After measuring and mixing ingredients, soak all used mixing bowls, spatulas, measuring spoons and cups and
mixer accessories in a tub of warm water (add a small amount of dishwasher detergent to help start the cleaning).
Drop soiled items in the soak as soon as you are through using them. They will be easier to wash later on.
2. Use a damp washcloth to wipe off all cake mix splatter from the mixer. While you're at it, wipe off any stray spatter
from the countertops and nearby areas. If necessary, finish off with a dry dishcloth.
3. Return electric mixers and other electronic equipment to their designated storage spaces.
4. After cooking, soak used cake pans and muffin tins in warm water with dishwashing solution to soften the baked-
on or burnt food.
5. Wash all used baking items and accessories by either handwashing or loading in a dishwasher (if dishwasher-
safe).
6. Dry all baking tools and equipment by air-drying on a drying rack or wiping with a dry dishcloth. Make sure all
wooden spoons and accessories are dry before storing. 
7. Store all tools and equipment in their designated places. Put frequently used items in conveniently accessible
locations. Gather and secure electrical cords to prevent entanglement or snagging. 
8. Proper Storage and Handling. Proper storage and handling of cleaned and sanitized equipment and utensils is
very important to prevent recontamination prior to use. 
9. Cleaned and sanitized equipment and utensils must be:
 stored on clean surfaces; and
 handled to minimize contamination of food contact surface.

10 Steps for Organizing Kitchen Cabinets

One easy and satisfying place to start is kitchen cabinets.


1. Pretend it has a glass door on it and everyone is going to see what's inside from now on.
2. Take a look at the photos below for inspiration.
3. Remove EVERYTHING and scrub the shelves with some soapy water.
4. If you’re a contact-paper type of person, rip out the old and replace it with new. There are some really cute ones
out there lately; I've seen them at Target (please share in the comments section if you have another good source).
5. Take anything you don't use anymore.
6. Think about what you reach for the most often and make sure it gets a position that's easy to reach.
7. Arrange everything in a composition that makes you happy. You're on your way.
8. Perhaps take a cabinet full of glasses and line them up by color. Make sure all of the fronts are facing out and
straight, Jeff Lewis-style.
9. Take a step back after one shelf is done.
10. Make someone else come look at what you've done.
