Fresh boxes are very useful food storage helpers, and almost every household has a fresh box. The insulated boxes on the market are of rich materials and sizes. First understand their characteristics before buying and using them. It is also very important to clean and easily store your insulated boxes. Old insulated boxes must be eliminated when necessary.
"Each specification selection has its advantages"The specifications of the insured box are full of specifications, ranging from round to square, large and small, but in fact, there is no absolute standard for easy or bad use, which depends on your favorites. If you have to make a comment, you should make a review standard based on the condition of the refrigerator. If the refrigerator is often full of load, it is recommended to use a round-shaped fresh box, because the round-shaped boxes are gathered together, and the gap between them is larger, and the effect of cold air on the flow is better. The smoother the cooling air flow in the refrigerator, the better the food is. In addition, households with a relatively high proportion of oil ingredients (especially oils for food) are recommended to use a round-shaped fresh box, because the square edges are more difficult to clean and easily get stuck.
"Different Materials and Applicable to Different Cuisines"
There are many forms of insulated boxes on the market, but the materials cannot be separated from plastic, glass, and silicone. Among them, the silicone material is softer, so the sealing effect of the cover is limited, and it is sold in Taiwan with fewer sales points and is less common, which is less likely to meet the needs of large consumers.
Plastic material:
It has the advantages of being light, not easy to break, and easy to carry. It is suitable for cooking to be brought outdoors, but it is not tolerant of high temperature. The doubt that Chinese people are afraid of plasticizers is their small disadvantage.
Glass material:
Glass material is currently popular among the people, and it has products from various brands. Its characteristics are that it is to resist falling (provided to be good-quality glass), heat-resistant (heat-resistant glass boxes can be steamed and roasted and microwaved), and can be sealed (prevent the smell from being poured out and the ingredients are not easy to get rid of the smell).
Generally, the method of use can be selected according to the material. For example, when foods that do not contain oil, use plastic-based insulated boxes, which are more convenient when cleaning; for foods that contain oil, use glass-based insulated boxes. In addition to cleaning, it can also be placed in the refrigerator for refrigeration or refrigeration, which makes it very convenient to heat the whole box directly.
"Evaluation based on cooking habits"
How many insured boxes do ordinary families need to use? Although I say that the life habits of each family are different, if I ask me, I will determine the amount I need based on my daily cooking habits. My weekly cooking habits are as follows, and the number of required incubators is:
• super small-sized-2 (2 kinds of sauces used)
• small-sized-3 (2-3 leftovers)
• medium-sized-5 (about 3 regular dishes and 1-2 mixed dishes)
• large-sized-2 (overcooked white rice and fruits every day)
• super large-sized-1 (sized vegetables that are washed and ready-made)
• deep bowl-type- 2 (small snacks that can be served with convenient meals)
is calculated based on a family of 4 people. This amount is sufficient. It is not that many items are good, but that they can be used flexibly. If you use them well, the above amount may be too much.
