Keeping a clean kitchen is the sign of a great chef, so take these tips and make your life a lot cleaner.
Scrap Bowl
Something that people do in professional kitchens is keeping a small bowl right next to the cutting board so as you collect skins and scraps of produce you can just toss it into the bowl and keep your cutting board clean. This will make sure you don’t get scraps all over the counter and the floor, and will keep your kitchen a lot cleaner!
Clean as You Go
If you’re making an elaborate meal or making a multi-step dessert, don’t wait until the end to clean everything! Cleaning as you go will help you avoid having a completely full sink of dishes at the end of the day, and will help utilize your time better.
Cutting Board
Even if you’re cutting up raw meat like chicken or pork, you can still use just one cutting board if you’re using a wooden cutting board. All you have to do is flip it over and use the other side to cut up veggies or other ingredients. You should wash off your knife, and you can rinse off the meat side if you want, but using just one cutting board will cut down your cleaning by a lot.
