Have you ever found yourself annoyed and throwing away that little plastic ring from your oil bottle? Turns out, that’s a huge mistake! What used to end up in the bin could be the key to better cooking and saving money in the kitchen.
For me, the ring has always been an unnecessary hassle. It was hard to remove and sometimes led to unnecessary oil spills. But recently I learned that it has a really useful purpose that has changed the way I approach cooking.
Why is it worth keeping it?
This little plastic piece, located under the cap, is not there by accident. It plays an important role in preserving the oil by preventing air from getting into the bottle. This means that the oil doesn’t oxidize as quickly and stays fresh for longer. What’s more, it can help you control how much oil you pour out, which is especially useful when you only need a few drops.
