Collapse ▲One of the things that is beneficial to any home cook is having a clean and organized pantry. It can save you time, money, headaches, and protect your food from pests. If you need to know what to keep and how to organize your pantry, then we would recommend you first stop by taking everything out of your pantry and clean the shelves with water and a kitchen disinfectant. Then, you will need to decide what to throw away and what to keep. It is often recommended to organize your pantry based on the food dates. It is the best by date, sell-by date, or use-by date. If food items are past their date, they aren’t necessarily bad. Each of these dates is established by a food manufacturer to communicate the food quality of a product, not whether or not the food is safe. Your local N.C. Cooperative Extension office has an upcoming virtual workshop to help provide more information on how to have a Versatile Pantry.
On Tuesday, December 14, 2021, from noon–1 p.m., we will be hosting a virtual workshop on the topic of “Versatile Pantry” for free. This workshop is from the More In My Basket (MIMB) program and will include topics such as planning your pantry, smart shopping, and pantry organization. Participants will learn the benefits of keeping staple items in your pantry, strategies for creating a stocked pantry, how to recognize ways to organize and keep track of food in the pantry, and we will discuss a variety of meals that can be prepared from a set of staple ingredients. Register for our virtual workshop on go.ncsu.edu/fcsregistration.
