How to Avoid Food Waste

How to avoid food waste may seem out of reach for those starting their system. However, preventing contributing to the hundreds of pounds of food waste just from your household alone yearly is easy to be done. Food waste is becoming a massive concern across the world. The best way to practice how to avoid food waste is not only the ever-growing dumpster diving which has been successful for most exercisers; there’s too the following opportunities to conserve food and money.

1. Leftovers your dinner shouldn’t be one and done. If you’re unable to finish your feast, keep the remainder for the next day. It’s a great way to avoid food waste and save money.
2. Proper storage your hardy herbs and tender herbs can’t be stored the same as one will wilt and rotten faster than the other. Hardy herbs can indeed be stored in a resealable bag when dry and adequately sealed. The more frail herbs should be stored in a jar with just an inch of fresh water before transferred without a lid. However, the cup should have a cover such as a plastic sandwich bag or saran wrap tight along the lip and edge of the container without damaging the herbs inside.
3. Compost food straps are an excellent fertilizer. On a residential scale, it’s sunk merely a few inches below a raised-bed garden for the worms to feed on. Keep a natural nutrient-rich soil by simply storing the straps in a compost box that’s airtight before tossing into the ground.

4. Broth with your leftover veggies you can make a great base for your next sauce. So clean, clip, and peel those nearly expired veggies to toss in a stock pot of water then bring it to boil. I recommend freezing it for later use after the water is good and flavorful which will take about an hour.
