Tips, ideas and recipes
Tip 1 - The pantry should be a first in, first out zone. Shelve the new items at the back, so that you grab the older can of tomatoes before the new one while cooking dinner.
Tip 2 - A bay leaf taped to the inside of your pantry keeps away the nasties, like moths.
Tip 3 - Onions and potatoes should be sent to their separate corners as they emit gases that cause the other to spoil.
