We Offer Plenty of Online Pantry Products for You to Choose from this Ramadan

A well-stocked pantry is the sign of a person who’s ready to cook a wide range of things at the drop of a hat. Why run out before dinner for a basic ingredient you can just keep on hand? Pantry items are those with a long shelf life, that take a good long while to go bad. Crowd Food has a full range of them, so you never run out at its online pantry store in UAE. Stock up and be ready for any meal eventuality. Having to only get one ingredient to make a particular meal or even not having to get any, takes the pressure off daily food prep. It’s nice to feel sure you’ll have something at home to eat even if you didn’t get your shopping done this morning.

Before you start stocking up, it’s probably a good idea to take a look into your pantry as it stands now to see if anything has gone by its good-till date. It can get grimy in there, so you might want to take everything out and wipe down the shelves, or better yet wash down the shelves. That’s the perfect time to check out the condition of the packaging and throw out anything that’s got a dent or a hole and definitely anything that was good until a few years ago (it happens, no judgment). Pantry basics last a long time but unfortunately not forever.

You can also sniff out something that’s gone bad. It doesn’t matter if it’s sell-by date is in the future: if it smells funny, throw it out. With everything out on the counter, now’s a good time to reorganize and group things together to make them easier to locate. Everyone has their own system, but you might try putting your spices near your baking goods and grouping together all your nuts and dried fruit, stacking your cans of legumes, and getting all sweeteners near each other. Your condiments might go with canned beans or with spices. Some people like to organize by packaging, not use, with boxes together and cans together and bottles together. The idea is to make sure you know where it is, so it doesn’t grow old and dusty in the back, unused and forgotten.

The best pantry items

Of the most long lasting of our pantry items at Food Crowd we have a variety of pastas from Barilla and Divella direct from Italy itself (and its accompanying tomato sauce), delicious fruit jams from France, mixed nuts and dried fruit from the United Arab Emirates, canned wild tuna from Thailand, and of course bottled water. We have American staples like hot sauce and tabasco, BBQ sauce and Italian salad dressing. We have an ample array of juices to keep on hand, so you never run out.

A plentiful spice rack is key to keeping the cook in your house happy and we have a huge assortment right from the UAE to your table. Make sure you have something to offer guests with a few of our tea, black or herbal, choices. We also have long-lasting snacks like apple rings or biscuit cookies just in case you get the between-meal munchies or a sudden guest drops in.

Best recipes

It’ll be easy to pull together a rice and chicken dish when all the ingredients except the chicken are already in your kitchen. You can get the butter, garlic, cinnamon, pepper, chicken stock, salt, basmati rice, and slivered almonds all beforehand! No last-minute worrying about what we’ll be having for Iftar this Ramadan. Food Crowd has a box all ready for you, with pantry basics like basmati rice, sunflower oil, flour, semolina, and tomato paste, as well as a few more perishable items like yogurt and cream.
