You're 5 steps away from a circular kitchen
Finding just the right vegetables and herbs is like a treasure hunt. The fun is in the finding. But when you get them home, do they just end up straight in the fridge? Time for a rethink. Creating a circular, sustainable kitchen is simple. With a few easy updates, you can store and recycle your food so you get the best flavours while wasting as little as possible of all that goodness.
1. A bamboo kitchen base
This FRÖJERED kitchen cabinet front is made from natural bamboo – a fast-growing and renewable material that is durable and looks and feels great. It's the perfect base for a sustainable kitchen in which nothing gets wasted.
2. Fresh from the farm
Keeping certain fruit and vegetables in cotton mesh bags hung on hooks in your kitchen will actually get you a fuller flavour. It allows them to ripen properly, while giving you a visual treat in the meantime.
3. Let your best buys breathe
Smart open wall storage with rails and hooks allows you to keep hardy veggies like onion and garlic, plus herbs and other condiments in a place where they keep well, look good and don’t clutter your worktop.
4. Food prep made simple
Making the most of the food you buy sometimes comes down to having the right tools. A washing-up basin and colander fitted to your sink make preparing your fresh vegetables easy.
5. Make sure nothing is wasted
A waste sorting system below the sink allows you to recycle leftovers and off-cuts into compost – so that even the waste from your favourite foods isn’t wasted.
