Pantry has Many Functions
More and more people make the pantry at home. Its function was not just a place to process food, but also can be used as a place to relax and entertain guests.
In order not to confused, we try to discuss what the pantry. Pantry concept, which is called the clean kitchen, actually come from Europe and America. In the country of origin, the main function is to store a variety of pantry cooking equipment and food ingredients. That’s why, here many cupboards and cabinets.
In the process, a pantry also used as serving food and beverages area. Especially in Western cultures, which usually store and serve wine for their guests. To fulfill this function, the pantry is equipped with a mini bar or food table. Also equipped with electronic tools for processing food, such as microwave. But this pantry concept application was usually found in large houses. In a medium and small sized houses pantry functions are usually accommodated by the kitchen.
Actually the use of kitchen or pantry concept must be adapted to the culture of each region or country. Eastern people, have different cooking habits with western people. We usually cook food with a relatively complicated processing. That’s why we need a fully equipped kitchen. Cooking utensils and other food ingredients are placed in one area, named kitchen. So, in fact if you think about it, we did not need the pantry, when we have a kitchen already.
But apparently, many people do not truly understand the concept of the pantry and kitchen. As a result, which already has a kitchen, still want to create a pantry. That’s all, really, back on the taste and budget of each person. But if it does not function optimally, why should be made?
