When you have a small kitchen, you need to make everything in your kitchen count. Here are five small kitchen essentials to keep in mind.
Go through everything in your kitchen, and get rid of everything that's not necessary. Do not keep Christmas dishes, fancy jello molds, and obscure gadgets in your kitchen. Do not keep multiples of bowls, pots, and pans that you don't use regularly. When you have fewer things, you will fit them more easily in your kitchen cabinets. Oh, and clear off the valuable real estate of your kitchen counter(s) completely. You need that space to work.
Hang your pots and pans up above from the ceiling or high on a wall. A pot and pan rack with hooks can be much more than a nice part of your kitchen decor. It keeps pots and pans right out where you can see them and grab them easily. Plus, it frees up more space below in your small kitchen.
Get yourself a little rolling kitchen island with shelves and a good countertop. It acts as more counter space and storage space, and rolls out of the way. Perfect for a small kitchen.
Small kitchen cooks need to clean as they go. Keep sudsy water in the sink, and clean up knives, bowls, and spoons as you use them. Throw away wrappers and paper towels as you use them. Put away spices, cookbooks, and other tools as soon as you're finished with them. Keep wiping the counter after each step in the cooking process, so you have a clean work space.
Shop for all of those clever storage gadgets that help you maximize the space you do have. Find behind the cabinet door racks, slide out shelves, wall hooks, and over-the-door racks. Find kitchen organizers that allow you to store baking pans and lids vertically.
