Cooking, baking and food preparation are easier with a well-organized kitchen. Utensils in a convenient, proper place along with organized work areas create a productive environment for cooking, baking and meal planning. A highly functional kitchen is designed to form a triangle between the stove/oven, refrigerator and sink, with no barriers or obstacles in between. It typically consists of five work areas: stove/oven, sink, countertop, refrigerator and cabinets. Stove/Oven: The stove/oven is the cooking area; all pots, pans, microwave, toaster and accessories should be located here. Use the cabinets and storage space nearest the stove/oven for these items. Sink: The kitchen sink is where all cleaning supplies are kept, including hand soap, dish detergent, sponges, cleaning cloths, etc. This may include the trashcan. Cleaning supplies are most logically stored in the cabinets under the kitchen sink. Countertop: Most food preparation will be performed on the countertop. Cabinets and storage areas adjacent to the countertop are ideal for mixing bowls, blenders, mixers, measuring cups, measuring spoons, etc. Refrigerator: The refrigerator is a food storage area; Tupperware and other plastic containers and plastic storage bags should be located nearest to the refrigerator. Cabinets: Serving dishes, glasses, linens, flatware, dinner plates and bowls should be stored in the same area for easy access. more »
