Longing for a tidy, organized kitchen where everything is right where you need it? Read on for ten great tips on how to organize your kitchen.

Sort and toss. Do you pick through fondue forks and pastry bag nozzles when looking for a spatula each morning? Chances are, much of your clutter is composed of stuff that isn’t really essential to the day-to-day functioning of your kitchen. Start the cleaning process by purging your cabinets and drawers of gadgets you hardly ever use. Take a hard look at your kitchen gizmos. Hang on to the tools that do many things well, like your blender, and consider ditching the cumbersome one-trick ponies (like that regrettable hard-boiled egg cooker). Donate the things you don’t need, and place rarely used items in storage.
