Reuse Cooking Oil and Save Money at Home

Pick a high-quality oil with a high smoking point, like canola or avocado. These last longer and handle heat better. Let the oil cool completely before handling. Don’t rush this step—hot oil is dangerous and can ruin containers. Strain the oil through cheesecloth into a clean glass jar to remove crumbs and leftover bits. This keeps the oil fresher for longer. Store your filtered oil in a sealed container, away from heat and sunlight. The back of a pantry or even the fridge works great. Only reuse oil with similar foods. For example, oil from frying chicken can be reused for potatoes, but not for sweet treats. If the oil looks cloudy, smells off, or gets thick, it’s time to toss it. Don’t keep oil for more than six weeks. #KitchenHacks #SaveMoney #ReduceWaste #Food #Cooking

DIY Soda: Save Money & Skip the Fake Stuff

Mix up your own soda syrup by combining 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 cup fresh juice or 2 tbsp extract in a saucepan. Boil and whisk until it’s thick and syrupy, then simmer to reduce by half. Cool the syrup and store it in a squeeze bottle in your fridge. It’ll last for weeks and is super easy to use whenever you want a fizzy drink. Pour some ice and seltzer water into a glass, add a squirt of your syrup, and stir. Adjust to taste. That’s it—no weird chemicals, just fresh soda! If you want to go deeper, try brewing your own with yeast and flavorings. It takes a little more time, but you get total control over sweetness and bubbles. Homemade soda is way easier than you think, and you’ll never want store-bought again. #homemadesoda #diydrinks #savemoney #Food #Cooking
