New Delhi: If you have guests over, they certainly need to be greeted with breakfast. We make a variety of snacks at home, which can get spoiled due to the moisture in the monsoon air. That’s why women are often worried about how to store such snacks, to prevent them from spoiling.
Snacks often get spoiled in monsoon because the moisture content in the air is high during monsoon. Salty snacks and biscuits may not be good for the taste and health. Snacks can spoil due to moisture, even if they are kept in closed boxes.
However, you need not worry as we bring you hacks that can help you prevent your snacks and biscuits from getting spoiled due to moisture.
Keep away from moisture: Never store biscuits or snacks in a damp place in the kitchen. Snacks that have been spoiled by moisture can also attract fungus. To avoid fungus and moisture, it is always recommended to store foods in dry places in the house. These should never be placed on the floor or at ground level. You can keep it in kitchen cabins that are dry. It can also help us to keep the snacks fresh and tasty during monsoon.
Do not use plastic containers for storage: We often use plastic containers to store things in the kitchen these days. We also use these containers to store snacks and biscuits. We should try to keep snacks and biscuits in glass jars instead of plastic containers to avoid getting the snacks wet during the rainy season. Biscuits and snacks in plastic containers can spoil easily, while in glass containers they will remain fresh and tasty for a long time.
Avoid drying in the sun: Drying things in the sun removes the moisture in them. You will often sun-dry spices, pulses, rice, but sun-drying snacks and biscuits can spoil them instead of keeping them fresh. It is always advisable not to dry the snacks and biscuits in the sun as it may spoil their freshness and taste.
Special Tips:
1. Whenever you open the packet of biscuits or snacks, make sure that you have closed their jar or packaging properly.
2. Use different jars instead of keeping different foods in the same jar.
3. Store snacks and biscuits in glass jars instead of plastic containers.
4. Store the snacks in an airtight container at least during monsoon.
5. Keep blotting paper in the biscuit boxes during monsoon, so that moisture does not remain in them due to moisture.
