Brilio.net - Granulated sugar can be said to be a kitchen spice that must be available at home. The reason is, granulated sugar is not only used for cooking, but also for making drinks such as tea, coffee, and others so that they taste sweeter. Granulated sugar is usually stored in a jar so that it is easier to take.
However, granulated sugar sometimes clumps when stored for a long time. This is certainly quite annoying, because the sugar becomes difficult to regulate the amount when it is going to be used. No wonder many people choose to add silica gel to the sugar storage jar, so that this one kitchen spice does not easily clump.
However, buying silica gel on the market is considered an additional PR (homework) that is complicated by some people, so some are reluctant to use the material. If you are one of them, don't worry because there is still one more way as shared by the Instagram account user @delavalent.

The netizen who is familiarly called Dela explained that this storage method will prevent granulated sugar from clumping in the jar because it is added with one kitchen ingredient.
" So this is how it works, yesterday the complicated thing was where I had been all this time haha ," he wrote in the caption of his Instagram post @delavalent, quoted by BrilioFood on Monday (12/8).

First, make sure the jar or container for storing granulated sugar is airtight. Then, put the sugar in when the jar is dry and clean.
In addition, when taking granulated sugar later, you must use a special spoon for sugar. So, the spoon should not be used together with other spices or kitchen ingredients.

After the granulated sugar is put into the jar, you can add one kitchen ingredient, namely a few cloves or cinnamon. Yup, those are the core kitchen ingredients to help granulated sugar not easily clump when stored. Cloves or cinnamon are known to absorb moisture in the granulated sugar storage jar.
Apart from that, cloves or cinnamon also emit a fragrant aroma that insects don't like. So, the sugar storage jar in your kitchen won't be visited by ants.
