Food containers are one of the most convenient items appearing in the kitchens of many Vietnamese housewives. When it comes to storage and freezing meat, seafood, using plastic/glass containers is better than using plastic bags. Not to mention, these containers also help to make your refrigerator look much neater.
For these reasons, food containers have become a “buy as much as you can” item. Where there is a container, there must be a lid. Organizing the lids after use may seem simple, but in reality, it is not.
If you put the lid in the dish slot in the cabinet, obviously, you will not have enough space to hold the dish. If you put the lid in the bowl compartment, they will be crooked, sometimes buried under layers of different sizes of bowls, and it is extremely inconvenient to find the right lid for each container.
Neat freaks will be very upset when they see this photo!
To overcome the inconveniences in arranging the lids of food containers, we will give you a very simple trick: Bicycle basket!
That’s right, you didn’t mishear. Although the bicycle basket and the food container lid seem unrelated, they actually are.
These 2 photos are probably enough for you to understand the connection between the bicycle basket and the food container lid, right?
Now, all you need to do is go to online shopping sites, enter the keyword “aluminum bicycle basket,” then go to grocery stores or supermarkets, buy a few multi-purpose hooks and you can create a very convenient and efficient place to store the lids!
You can stick the multi-purpose hooks on the kitchen shelf/cabinet door and hang the bicycle basket on them. Because the bicycle basket has holes, you don’t have to worry about the lids getting wet.
In case you have a large collection of food containers, which means a large number of lids, you can order 2 or 3 bicycle baskets depending on your needs.
Keeping your lids in this bicycle basket also requires attention. You should ensure that you arrange the lids in order of size from small to large (smaller lids in the front, larger lids in the back). That way, when you need to take out a lid, you can quickly pick up the right one you are looking for. If you do not arrange the lids in order of size from small to large, the process of finding the right lid for each container may make you frustrated and angry (in case you have more than 10 food containers).
