These are a life saver! I used to go in for batch cooking, making a large amount of soup, stew or whatever, and freezing if into portions, but then I found the results variable. It was OK if they were nice, but if they turned out not so nice, I didn't like the prospect of 6 more portions to wade through!
So now I cook from scratch, one meal at a time. Sweat up some onions, carrots with herbs etc in a pan and cook with rice/lentils, or microwave whatever veg you have to hand together with some seasoning. This means I use small amounts of stock (fresh, organic, nothing you wouldn't use in your own pressure cooker if you had the energy!), tomato pureé/passata, even a few beans each time, a tablespoon or so of each added to the pan for every meal thus prepared, but then I don't get through the tin/jar before it goes off, so I divide the contents into small portions and freeze them. So far I've amassed a collection of babyfood containers (plastic) which are an ideal size for this purpose, but then I began to try to move away from plastic and searched around desperately for something to replace them. So glad I found these from Elephant Box. They're ideal! Clean, airtight, easy to release the contents, perfect! Thank you, good people!
Nice little pots. I wasn't sure what I was going to use them for, but since they hold more than you think, they have already had a number of uses. Good for snack lunches certainly as they hold nuts, chocolate, fruit, even a biscuit or two, and I've even had dried goods in them in the cupboard! Very smart!
Great little pots. They hold more than you think, and, though they might not look it, they're really airtight. I use the middle one now for ground coffee - two to a pack, and they keep it really fresh. Others for leftovers. Gradually replacing my collection of quality plastic pots built up over the years, almost as good as new and still going strong, but I'm not so happy about the microplastic now, and am moving slowly away. Ceramic is inclined to shatter, and chip the floor tiles when I drop it, so stainless steel is attractive!
Just love Elephant Box! Light enough for easy transport. Leak-proof. Great for fridge and freezer storage.
Great water bottle. Doesn't leak. Would definitely buy again.
