Preparing food and cooking in a small space is like a war. One more person to help, the kitchen can't move at all. After all, the kitchen is too small to cook.
In fact, as long as the line planning is reasonable and the storage is good, cooking will no longer be a burden.
0 1/? Let the moving wires move.
Moving line is a very frequently used term in the field of design and home, which refers to the route a person takes to complete a series of operations. If you feel that when cooking in the kitchen, you are always busy, running from one end to the other, it is probably that there is something wrong with the line.
Whether it's making a table full of banquets or simply making instant noodles, the cooking process is actually similar to several steps:
1) take food out of the refrigerator or storage cabinet.
2) Wash, cut and prepare the ingredients one by one.
3) Cook in a pot
These three steps determine that whether your kitchen is I-shaped, L-shaped or U-shaped, the most important thing is to walk between the refrigerator, sink and stove.
Prepare vegetables → wash vegetables → cook vegetables → serve food, and you can plan a clear and definite moving line.
According to the ideal moving line, the positions of ingredients, condiments and tableware can be planned accordingly. For example, arrange the refrigerator near the sink and store the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in the cabinet closest to the stove. In this way, we can largely avoid the situation of frying a dish, taking things back and forth, and making several wrong trips.
Don't worry if more than one person is busy in the kitchen. As long as two people follow the moving route and act in the same direction, the situation of collision and fighting can be reduced a lot.
So, do you often complain that the kitchen is too small to cook? Combined with your own habits, you can rearrange the cooking lines, even in a limited small space, you can create unlimited creativity.
02/? Boldly expand kitchen space
Many times people think that the kitchen is too small, but it is actually occupied by many unimportant things, but the real storage potential of the kitchen is far from enough. In this case, we need to use our brains and boldly expand the kitchen space.
Use up every inch of storage space.
Is the countertop in your kitchen full of bottles and jars, but it took a lot of effort to find a steaming rack? If so, using every inch of space in the kitchen to do a good job of storage is definitely a "real fragrance" operation that makes people feel zero regret.
1) wall space
For a small kitchen, an empty wall is definitely a luxury waste. You can totally:
Setting one or two partitions on the wall to store small items and put them back after use can make cooking and cleaning easier.
For a wide variety of knives and condiments, the magnetic knife rest and seasoning pot can be firmly adsorbed and can be taken at any time when you want to use them.
If you are an expert in kitchen utensils, all kinds of pots and pans, and different types of shovels, then the combination of hanging rods and S-hooks can make storage easier and clear at a glance.
More importantly, at present, most of the wall storage can be done by pasting, which saves the trouble of punching holes.
2) stored in the cupboard door
In addition to the wall, the storage space of the cupboard door is also worth using. What you put behind the door can be completely according to your personal needs.
For example, put onions, ginger and garlic in a small basket behind the cupboard door; Stick a few hooks to put gadgets; Stick a small shelf to put the lid, and if space permits, you can put a small trash can.
? "Out of nothing" breaks the limitation of kitchen
Sometimes there are too many ingredients on the kitchen counter, or the ingredients are too far away, so it is too much trouble to take them once. As long as a multi-layer storage trolley can create a temporary island from scratch, the fluency of the kitchen line can be greatly improved.
Good storage can save more kitchen space. Of course, sometimes the kitchen space is too small, and how to save it is still stretched. At this time, we can also consider transferring some functions of the kitchen to a room with more space. For example, the wall of the restaurant is transformed into a storage wall, and coffee pots, small household appliances, cups and tableware, and ovens can all be moved to this position to expand the functional area of the kitchen by space.
03/? Choosing the right kitchen appliances is very important.
It is very important to choose suitable cookers and kitchen appliances in order to cook easily and save kitchen space to the greatest extent. Multifunctional kitchen appliances are very suitable for small houses. They combine the uses of different cookers in one place, which can not only meet the functional requirements, but also save space.
For example, Tai Fang Integrated Cooking Center, with integrated design, makes rational use of the space under the stove and is suitable for compact kitchen space. The integrated design of upper stewing and lower steaming oven, within 1 square meter, can display cooking skills at will.
If you also feel that the kitchen is too small and stretched, try the method mentioned above. You can also enjoy cooking at home.
