A Simple Guide to Choose the Right Kitchenware in Malaysia

Things to consider before buying kitchenware

• Budget

When buying kitchenware, always buy within your budget. You already spend quite a bit on your house, why would you want to spend even more on kitchenware? It is fine to splurge but make sure you buy for the quality and just aesthetics. If you are buying for newlyweds and thinking of giving kitchenware, you could collect money among your group of friends. This way, you could give them better kitchenware rather than a random one. 

• Stove Type

Different houses have different types of stoves. Check which stove your house has before buying kitchenware. Make sure that it is suitable for your stove. Currently, in Malaysia, we have either gas or induction stoves. A fire that is generated from the burner itself on a gas stove provides rapid and powerful heat. Over time, this quick exposure to high temperatures might harm some kitchenware, especially if it was built with low-quality materials. Heat is directly transferred to metal kitchenware during induction cooking. As a result, induction cooking necessitates the use of kitchenware constructed of extremely particular substances.

• Oven/Microwave Friendly

If you own or are thinking of buying an oven or microwave, it is best to have oven or microwave-friendly kitchenware. Killing two birds with a stone. When you have this type of kitchenware, you can use it for everything. You also can serve the food after coming out from the oven without needing to transfer it to more presentable kitchenware. People seem to separate their serving dishes and Tupperware storage containers that they used solely inside the microwave. Wasting money and storage.

• Eco-Friendliness

Many neighbourhood communities rely on eco-friendly kitchenware for a living. You're giving these community enterprises a chance to grow and prosper by buying eco-friendly kitchen supplies. Your assistance matters, no matter how small. You can develop a market for locally produced, sustainable goods by purchasing eco-friendly kitchenware. Demand for environmentally friendly products and jobs will rise as the market expands. By purchasing these items, you are also consuming less energy and lowering your carbon footprint. You are also lowering the amount of waste that ends up in landfills when you choose eco-friendly kitchen products because they are biodegradable, recyclable, and reusable.
