Show us your kitchen cupboards

[Epona]

I have a lot of herbs, spices, bottles of condiments and cooking ingredients, and not much cupboard space - so I've started to get racks to put stuff in (got a free small veg rack off Freecycle yesterday that fits under a shelf on my kitchen counter and it's already revolutionised my spice clutter. Going to get another couple of the same over the weekend if I can, and when I've got it sorted I might take photos (at the moment the overriding decorative theme in the kitchen is still "bomb gone off").

I’ve gone off it lately as it was causing me to have the runs. That jar has been unopened for a few months

I love the stuff but Mrs SFM has been biased against it for years - until, that is, she read in some book that it's good for gut health so now she's a fan. Fickle......

I don’t have much kitchen storage so there’s a fair bit on the sides. This is the cupboard.

This thread inspired me to use some of the tins to make a bean chilli yesterday, it wasn’t very nice though may improve after reheating but that’s more down to me being a shit cook (it has been nicer before, so must have done something different), it was good to cook something anyway

I was concerned about the lack of spices and flavourings, chilli pastes, etc, so I suggest that you invest and keep us informed.

No need to go mad, just start with a few and work up from there, otherwise you will end up with lots of unopened stale spices past their use-by-date, which does matter with spices.

There were spices in the pictures but perhaps not awfully visible

I was worried that people would think I had no spices. They’re on the back of a door.

I’d like to reassure UrbaneFox and any one else that my spice collection is approximately half the size of Danny’s

Spice drawers extended as per the new full kitchen storage disclosure edicts.

I’m glad we’re able to reassure others in this way.

 

[UrbaneFox]

That is all well and good, but I remain concerned about dozens of jars that are probably well past the best-before date. Time for a major purge in a lot of cupboards, I suspect.

As for dried basil, no thanks.

My spice drawer still looks pretty much the same as this, only it's currently a similarly-sized cardboard box in the aforementioned storage unit.

Herbs I've collected and dried myself are kept with the plant seeds though, because that makes more sense to my brain.

In need of reorganisation here.





And the overflow

I was worried you might think we didn’t have tea or mugs or jugs.

Teabags are above the kettle, obviously.

Not just a cupboard, but that most mythical of beasts - a drying cupboard!







Here in Finnish Airbnb land, not many fucks are given about electrical safety it seems.
