  • Hi.

  • Welcome to show me the current dot com on the new job and I'm fickle.

  • And today we're gonna show you how to manage your kitchen in times of crisis.

  • We all know what's going on right now.

  • Big Corona virus.

  • Yes.

  • And a lot of us are stuck at home and with limited supplies and limited mobility to get out.

  • So I think we got some really down a few good strategies that will help you out.

  • Right?

  • So we're gonna start with the top 10 things that we're doing ourselves.

  • And maybe you guys can also use some of these strategies.

  • Okay, Just take it.

  • Stop hoarding toilet paper last time you checked.

  • Corona virus does not cause diarrhea and share this.

  • Lend you toilet paper in your home that you have to get through this crisis.

  • So please don't buy toilet paper.

  • So one of the biggest thing you can do is do not panic and do not whore, because the latest we heard is that there's plenty of food.

  • There's plenty of groceries everywhere.

  • And it's all the people who were going out and buying tons and tons and tons of food.

  • That's creating all the shortages everywhere.

  • But in reality, there really is no shortage of food.

  • So please don't don't go by 10 bags of water.

  • I don't understand what I mean.

  • There's no what does the water supply mark?

  • You leave your age when we don't have to worry about that.

  • So we have plenty of water.

  • Don't worry about that.

  • The board is not going anywhere and do not just, you know, buy for this heck of buying.

  • And just because somebody else is fine, it's a number two.

  • I think it's a great, great tip, you know, being Indians.

  • We have our country's full off Dr beans and dried rice and dry goods.

  • Basically, So it's a good time to, you know, empty how that and just clean up and stop fresh when everybody else is doing.

  • You know, instead of spending the extra money right now and hoarding rice and bells and things like that instead of spending that money, take that time to use up everything you have.

  • And then you could spend that money on fresh.

  • So let me show you my pantry.

  • I know that stuns off us out there, having the same away.

  • Look at this and has three levels off dolls and dry beans.

  • And I did not hold these for this purpose.

  • This is how my country's on everyday basis.

  • Countries are correct.

  • Yeah, I was the same way.

  • And I know yours is too.

  • Right.

  • So I got does about rice in the back.

  • I got a few condiments over here, and I've got tomato cans.

  • I've got some, um, vegetable broth just in case.

  • And, of course, my little junk area s.

  • So why don't you use this?

  • I think it's a great time to clean up and start fresh.

  • Like you mentioned.

  • Said number three similar to the pantry.

  • Clean out your freezer.

  • Because how many times do we keep buying and buying and buying things and sticking them in the freezer and way?

  • Forget about them.

  • I know.

  • I know.

  • I'm guilty.

  • I tryto date everything, but some things just kind of stay in there.

  • Stay in there.

  • This is a perfect chance.

  • Just get everything out of the freezer.

  • Started using it out.

  • And just like the pantry used that money Later, when you're restocking and buying fresh ingredients, absolutely start sprouting.

  • What a great way and alternative to your dog so you could make it down like this, Of course.

  • But you know, you can use any of the whole dolls or lentils and just brought them, so it gives a different look.

  • So, you know, a makeover for your usual does.

  • Yeah.

  • And not only that, when you sprout, what happens is your you're actually being is germinating and therefore becoming a plant rather than a seat.

  • So now all of a sudden, you have, like, a freshness to it, Like a vegetable field to your right.

  • So basically, from carbs becomes fiber, which is great, even better for the stomach.

  • So number five try to buy vegetables that have an extended shelf life.

  • That's pretty easy to do if you just give it just a little bit of thought.

  • I have a bag full over here.

  • Uh, first things first.

  • Cabbage.

  • Cabbage has a very, very long shelf life.

  • It can stay in the fridge for about a month.

  • It's a great buy.

  • Next, we have broccoli now, broccoli again, whether you buy the full head or prepped like this.

  • Either way, it lasts for a very, very long time in your refrigerator.

  • You can use it like in small portions, or use the whole thing.

  • Salad's very useful radish.

  • Now I am minus with the greens.

  • You can chop off the greens on the radish with the last for a very long time, or you can make a nice vegetable with the radish with the greens.

  • So next is our beloved collie flower.

  • I think we all love cauliflower, and it's so versatile you can just do so many things with it.

  • But again, just like a cabin even sitting in your fridge for a month, it's usually always really good.

  • The only thing you might see is sometimes you'll see just a little bit of dark spots like that, which are easily just You could just chop it off.

  • It's fresh.

  • Next house is Brussels sprouts, these little baby cabbages.

  • You can make something out of it.

  • You can roast them in the oven on.

  • They last for very long times.

  • There's a really, really big bag of tail.

  • So unlike spinach, which tends to spoil at a faster rate, kale last forever.

  • I mean, it's just it's got a very good shelf life.

  • It's got like, very three fibrous, so doesn't wilt down as much, and you can use it for salads.

  • Or you can use it in subsidies either.

  • That's what I do.

  • I usually what I do is keeper.

  • You keep half of it as salad and the rest just took it down with my spinach.

  • So I have an additional texture and the additional flavor to this regular spinach.

  • And I didn't even hold.

  • Yes, these are winters washes.

  • Check these out.

  • Now the's are available during the fall and winter time, but it's still spring right now, so many stores still carry them, but the's The best part is that they don't need to be refrigerated.

  • So you can buy these and just kind of keep him in a cool place.

  • And they're just there.

  • Yeah, I bought this.

  • I'm not gonna lie about this.

  • Two months ago, I'm not mourning.

  • I had, and they're solid.

  • There's no even sign of any kind of spoilage on these.

  • These are fantastic.

  • I love the fact that they don't need to be refrigerated because, you know, refrigerate of space is so precious, so you'd rather use them for things that you really need to this thes Porsche's plus potatoes and sweet potatoes that can all get outside so additional stuff that you should actually by keep.

  • And this way it prevents you from courting.

  • Really?

  • But you're buying the right kind of ingredients That is just gonna last the number six buy vegetables that freeze.

  • So now there are a few vegetables my family eats on a constant basis, and they do the other cranes that can freeze.

  • So we got 10 Dora or tonally and we've got okra.

  • So I did waas or I'm going to do with this case.

  • I packed crowd here and brought.

  • We're gonna keep some to freeze for later and something use fresh.

  • And I'm gonna do the same thing for the, uh, door out.

  • Keep one time for fresh use and one time for freezing.

  • Now, it's unrealistic to think that every single vegetable you buy is gonna be one that hasn't extended shelf life like the ones that we just showed you.

  • But if you do buy vegetables that don't have an extended shock life permanently like spinach leads, they go back really, really fast.

  • What you do is you can go ahead and cook them down and then keep them either in the fridge or the freezer.

  • So here I took a Nen tire bag of spinach, which was, I think, almost like two and 1/2 pounds.

  • The big bag I got from my Costco, a huge bag of spinach.

  • I just cooked it down and then blended it.

  • And here it is.

  • It's shrunk down.

  • So first of all, it takes a lot less space in my fridge or freezer.

  • And it's ready for me any time.

  • I want to use that.

  • Make buff Rainier any kind of any any kind of vegetable.

  • You can just, like, pull it out, defrosted or use it right away.

  • It's really, really convenient.

  • Said Number seven is whatever you do by smart, Yes, Hoarding up unnecessary things is not gonna get you in a lot of places.

  • So we're gonna show you a quick recipe that you can use just these basic things.

  • So we've got a can of tomatoes, ginger, garlic paste, fried onions.

  • We're gonna be using eggs with us, but you can easily substitute with the potatoes or any other vegeta any animal on Rainier.

  • But basically these are the three things that we made sure that we had when everybody else was panicking and buy things is the only things we did and you could do so much with right?

  • It's a number eight Go tetra.

  • We all drink milk in one form or the other, right?

  • And one of the biggest things that has a very, very short span or exploration time is milk and it does go bad.

  • So how do we keep that right by right are switch to some kindof tetra pak usually coconut milk and almond milk or soy milk.

  • They all come in gentle cracks like that did not need to be refrigerated.

  • Have an excellent shelf life.

  • This one I bought a couple of months ago.

  • It's still got six months more so.

  • But once you open it, of course you have, you know, 7 to 10 days to use it up.

  • But you know, it's just got to keep it on hand in case you ever run out in case crisis does come up Exactly and again, this is not about morning.

  • This is all about trying to flatten the Kurt right.

  • We were trying to not expose ourselves that expose others and kind of having a social distancing and even though we're not putting food, we still don't want to get out into the grocery store and buy things right.

  • So we're buying smart rather than hoarding on things that we don't need on that note.

  • Yeah, social.

  • It's a number nine.

  • So it's supporting up on 20 paper.

  • You would suggest you.

  • You stock up on your medicines, prescription medicines, you're cold and cough and fever medicines because you don't want to go out into a pharmacy and have other people that are sick.

  • And actually, you know, like I mentioned earlier, you don't want to be exposing yourself to more germs and bacteria and I don't know about you, but sometimes I have cough medicine from, like, four years ago in my medicine cabinet.

  • They sometimes you just don't use these things and you think you have them, but they're well expired.

  • So now is the time to get just a fresh batch.

  • Keep it on hand, you wrecked.

  • And finally number 10.

  • Keep calm.

  • And I must say, in bed, Did you get it?
