Rack Spice is a Great Kitchen Accessory

By Stacy Fox

Today you have almost as many choices of kitchen spice racks as you do of the spices they contain. Spice racks are wonderful kitchen cooking accessories and home organization gadgets.

You will want to put your rack spice in the kitchen so it is close at hand for when you cook. As a caution, do not place the spices too close to the stove because the heat can destroy their potency.

Consider buying a wall mountable spice rack.

If you have hard to reach counter space, you can put a "carousel" spice rack in the corner.

Like to view your spices in one glance? Buy a "slanted" kitchen spice rack.

If you have a free drawer, then you can use the "spice rack drawer liner" that some stores are now selling.

If you are not using the bottom side of your kitchen cabinets you can buy an under the cabinet spice rack. This is also called the "Undercounter Spice Rack" or the "Pull Down Spice Rack."

Is the inside of your pantry door empty? Use a "door-mounted spice rack".

If you have lots of kitchen counter space or open shelf space then get a "free-standing spice rack".

Do you use a lot of different spices in your cooking? Then you have to decide whether you want a large single level spice rack or a multi tiered one that holds all of them.

A gourmet cook may need a lot of spices for their recipes while a more basic cook will only need an organizer for 6 to 8 spices.

You need to be able to easily access your spices. A vertical double shelf spice rack on a wall underneath a kitchen cabinet needs enough room between the top shelf and the underside of the kitchen cabinet so that you can easily remove and replace the containers.

Do you want a spice rack that comes pre-filled with spices or do you want to do your own shopping? Also, do you want a higher quality spice rack that has glass jars or one that is more inexpensive?

Keep things as simple as possible. The goal is to save space when you buy home organization tools.

Kitchen rack spice comes in a wide variety of material including acrylic, wood, stainless steel, plastic, wire, and chrome.

Rack spice containers are very durable. You will find that they help a lot if you do any amount of cooking.
