Pantries Make Life and Cooking Easier
As an increasing number of homeowners spend more time in their homes and rely increasingly on subscription and delivery services for groceries and household goods, pantries have become almost a necessity in a well-designed and functional dream kitchen.
Having a place for everything provides several valued benefits to homeowners. For example, a pantry reduces the number of trips you have to make to the grocery store or online orders that you have to make and helps to ensure that you don’t run out of the items you need to prepare your favorite meals.
A walk-in or even a pull-out pantry provides more flexible space offered by a drawer or cabinet, enabling a kitchen to function more efficiently. Pantries are a great organizer. Storing items in clear containers that are labeled ensures that you will never confuse salt with sugar. We often recommend that homeowners organize their pantries in food group categories such as canned goods with canned goods, spices with spices, pasta with pasta, grains with grains, etc. Doing so enables homeowners to easily find whatever they need to prepare a meal quickly and easily.
Pantries also serve as a welcome home for large countertop appliances that are only used occasionally, such as a stand mixer, toaster, sandwich press, slow cooker, and similar items, thereby freeing up valuable counter space and helping to ensure a modern, clean look. Similarly, the pantry can also house large roasting pans, stock pots, and other cookware items that are only used occasionally, freeing up drawer and cabinet space for items that are relied upon almost daily.
If your current cabinets and drawers are stuffed to the gills, you will truly appreciate the benefits of a walk-in or pull-out pantry. Pantries can all but eliminate duplicate purchasing items because you did not know that the jar of peanut butter or the box of cavatelli was hidden behind your five-pound bag of flour.
Pantries make cooking easier. They save money and time and avoid waste. Plus, they make your kitchen much more enjoyable to use. Can your new dream kitchen accommodate a walk-in or pull-out pantry?
