How to store salt so that it lasts a long time and doesn't water.
To store salt so that it lasts and doesn't run out, first make sure you use an airtight container. Here are some tips for storing salt well:
1. Use a tight container.
Store salt in an airtight container, such as a glass jar or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Make sure the cover is tight to prevent air from entering.
2. Keep away from moisture.
Place the salt container in a dry place away from sources of moisture, such as a pan or bathtub. Moisture can make the salt wet and lumpy.
3. Keep away from direct heat.
Avoid storing salt near direct heat sources, such as a stove or oven. Heat can trigger condensation inside the container and make the salt damp.
4. Add silica gel.
You can also add silica gel packets to the salt container to absorb moisture. Make sure the silica gel is in airtight packaging and does not come into direct contact with salt.
5. Keep it clean.
Make sure the containers and tools used to store salt are clean and dry before using. Contamination with water or humidity can speed up the clumping of salt.
By following the tips above, you can store salt properly so that it remains durable and doesn't water for a longer period of time.
