Food Storage Tips
Salma opened her grocery cupboard, so many Tupperware’s to use but none adequate enough to store her left over chicken stir fry in. She wouldn’t dare store the freshly marinated chicken stir fry in the branded Tupperware that her mum gave her as she didn’t want the raw chicken smell to stick on her container. With such saucy meat, it is always ideal to refrigerate it in a container that does not require washing up afterwards. So, storage for just a short while was her aim. If only she had a disposable plastic container with an easy slip on lid to effectively store away the food. Aaisha is attending a henna function at Aunty Beni’s and can’t go empty handed. She has made delectable croissants that will look magnificent in her large silver tray. Aaisha knows very well that Aunty Beni will never return her new dishes so she refuses to part with the tray from Bali. If only she had those aluminum range container trays to take with.

Many ladies have started marinating their meat in advance due to the Oman heat that makes it impossible to stand in the kitchen for too long. A trick for marinating meat easily is to place the juicy marinated fillets onto a bamboo skewer and thereafter store it away in the freezer until further use. On the day of cooking and serving the meat, the meat is easy to work and can be cooked with a little oil in a pot. Placing the raw fillets on the skewers from the start means the fillets are already well presented and not much presentation work needs to be done when serving.
Having to deliver sweets or biscuits to neighbors or friends has never been easier. The sweet box is an attractive box that comes in a variety of sizes and colors. Each box is decorated differently to match the presentation look that you are going for. These are excellent boxes for gifting during Ramadan and Eid time. Many of our clients stock up on these boxes especially during Eid and Diwali.
Sine chaat has become the ever so popular treat, these mini paper boat trays work perfectly for appealingly placing the chaat, crisps or nachos in. These boat tarys can even be used to place sweets or gums. They are rather decorative food serving items and can be used at functions to stylishly display the food. They are rather smaller trays so do not require a large serving portion.

The recyclable plate has always been the best plate to use for picnics with the family. When going family outing often we all serve the barbequed meat in these plates. I too would recommend eating in the lightweight foam plate whilst in the desert. They are cheap and can be thrown away after use.
