Caring for the Earth? In fact, reducing carbon emissions during cooking at home doesn't require significant investments or complicated steps.
- You can thaw frozen foods in advance to save cooking time and fuel usage.
- Before cooking, try to dry the ingredients and cookware to reduce the fuel and time wasted from evaporating moisture.
- Opt for "batch" cooking whenever possible to save a significant amount of energy. For example, when cooking, you can use the same pot of boiling water to cook various ingredients in a sequence, such as vegetables first and then blanching meat.
- Choose equipment like multi-tiered electric cookers or steamers that allow you to cook multiple dishes at once, saving time and energy. Slow-cooking pots and ceramic cookware are energy-efficient options that can utilize the residual heat to cook food.
- During cooking, remember to cover the pot to reduce heat loss, which not only saves time but also conserves energy.
- Eating raw fruits and vegetables in moderation not only saves energy but also helps retain nutrients like Vitamin C that may be lost during heating.
