A kitchen is a place where you cook and prepare dishes and special foods for your subsistence and of course for the enjoyment of other people.
It is essential to have properly stored and organized food storage around the kitchen for the following reasons:

• You would not want ingredients to be mixed up.
  You want to know where to get things and where to keep them.
  
• You would not want smells and tastes to get mixed up and spoil good food.
  
• You would not want clutter in your kitchen and have insects and other animals living in your kitchen.
  

With these reasons, you would know that a good kitchen storage organization is as essential as cooking and eating your food.
Here are some good ways to store your food:

• For meats it is essential to keep them in the freezer especially if you do not want to use it at once.
  It is also good to store them in containers to keep meat parts separated and to know which ones should be used.
  
• For fish, it is good if you treat the fish first with salt or lemon with lukewarm water.
  These preservatives will minimize the odor and increase its flavor.
  
• For vegetables, not all of them need to be refrigerated.
  Some precut vegetables need to be stored in a cooler temperature to avoid spoiling.
  Newly picked vegetables need to be stored in a place of low humidity and great ventilation.
  This is the reason why the kitchen should always be well ventilated.
  
• For boxed food items, it is essential to organize your cabinets.
  For a more decorative and fancier looking organization, glass or porcelain containers can be used to put pasta, cereals, oats and even cookies in.
  be sure that the containers have a tight lid with stopper preferably to ensure that the air won't mess up with the quality of the products.
  
• For canned goods, it is best to store them in places that children cannot reach.
  You should also make sure that the canned goods are stored in a good and well ventilated place so as to prevent rusting and spoiling your products.
  
• Condiments and spices are best stored in a rack that is accessible for you anytime you want to use them.
  Again, ventilation is important to keep them fresh for a long time.
  
• Utensils should always be kept in the dish drawers and electrical equipment should be out of reach for children.
  
• Knives should have a very stable foundation and should be stored away from the reach of children.
  

Kitchen organization does not need any elaborate equipment to get things done.
You just have to know how to make your space more efficient and be practical and practice safety precautions as well as proper food storage to lengthen the freshness of your foods and protect your children and even yourself from accidents as well as insect and small animal infestations.
An organized kitchen is a fun place to be in!
