In today's article I will tell you why do I check the expiration date of flour before buying and about two more useful household life hacks. I think that at least one of the above tricks you can take on board. Let's get started!
1. Why do I check the expiration date of flour, it would seem that flour is not milk and the chance to buy a spoiled product is very low, but there are several nuances. In most cases, flour has a shelf life of 12 months. You should know that you should not buy flour if it was produced earlier than one month ago, as it did not have time to "settle" and is poorly suited for baking. Also, do not take flour if more than eight months have passed since the production date, since harmful compounds will begin to form in the product.
2. The second household trick is related to ketchup. It turns out that ketchup is best squeezed out of the bottle. if you press on the place where the bottle begins to expand. Hynes ketchup producers have specially marked these places with the numbers 57,
it is on them that the fingers should be located. Scroll the photo to the right.3. The third trick is also related to ketchup, but will work with any sauce as well. It so happens that the sauce is not squeezed out of the bottle and no manipulation helps. This problem is easy to solve - take a straw, dip it into the bottle, literally for a second, and take it out. After this procedure any sauce will flow out easily. Not believing in such a trick, I tried it on the sauce, which stood in the refrigerator for several months - look at the photo as you scroll to the right. If you liked the article - rate it like!
