Top 5 Secrets to Keep Your Kitchen Clean and Sparkling

December 31, 2012 by Marie Gizelle Leave a Comment

Anyone who is raising a family will understand the pain of trying to keep the house clean. The kitchen, by far, is one of the most important things to keep dirt-free at all times. This is the place where you both store food and prepare it. As a result, you want to make sure that there are no germs which can be passed on as this can end up causing a lot of serious illnesses. There are a couple of guidelines here which will allow you to keep your kitchen clean and sparkling, but will also ensure that you have something that you will be proud to show off to guests.

1. Clean As You Go

This may seem like a very simple thing, but it is in fact something that very few people do. Often, when preparing a meal, you may just leave everything out until the job is done. This will leave you with a huge mess at the end which can be a nightmare to clean up. By cleaning as you work, you can ensure that your surfaces are always clear and that you have more space. Even if you simply make a sandwich, make sure to put the bread back in the cupboard and clean the knives. This can also prevent all cutleries from piling up in the copper sinks which can also be a nuisance.


2. Wipe Your Surfaces Regularly

Make sure to wipe your surfaces every day and use an anti-bacterial spray. Surfaces can clog up with germs quite quickly, especially if you have small children. By making sure you give the place a quick once-over in the morning and in the evening, you will be able to keep the place sparkling.

3. Rotate Your Stock

If there are any perishables in the refrigerator in the cupboards that can go off quickly, make sure that you use them as soon as possible. Rotting meat or vegetables can end up leaving a bad smell and will attract things like flies and fruit flies. Making sure that your stock is regularly rotated will ensure that your cupboards are kept clean and that you do not eat anything that is gone off.


4. Make Sure the Sink is Clean

A dirty sink can throw the entire kitchen off. Make sure that there is nothing in it and that it is always sparkling. If you have to wash something, make sure that you put it away as soon as possible.


5. Keep Everything Clear

This applies to the counter tops, the stove and the sink itself. Do not let dishes pile up on the draining board. Make sure that you keep everything out of the way and your kitchen will always look good.

Everyone wants to have a home that they can be proud of. Making sure that your kitchen is always in good order will mean that you will have one more room to show off to the guests.
