Top food waste hacks from me, use your freezer. Fresh herbs So often we buy them in the supermarket, it's a pound for a bunch. A recipe says use a small amount or half a bunch. For me chop it up really finely, the old school ice cube trays, pop them in, cover it with water, freeze it and then when you get to the end of a dish If you've got a garden get a compost bin, start doing your own compost and then start growing your own veg, not only do you have to stop paying for vegetables in the shops, you can make the most of all your peelings and trimmings and all the rest of it so you're not just chucking them in the bin I think getting confident with your leftovers as well, stuff If you do end up overcooking the rice, not overcooking as in it go a mushy but cooking too much rice. Well let'say you end up with leftover rice, all you need to do, chill it down, top tip, spread it out evenly on a tray, let it cool really quickly, get it in the fridge and when you reheat it just make sure it's absolutely piping hot but for me I generally try and avoid cooking too much Get used to portion control even if it means weighing out per portion, how much you need so you're not cooking too much in the first place.
