"The next time you rinse out a just-finished pasta jar, think twice before sending it to your recycling bin. Recycling is great, but you know what's better? Re-using. There are so many things you can do with a sturdy glass jar - and pasta jars in particular are so versatile and useful thanks to their larger size. Whatever use you put your cleaned pasta jar to - whether it's storing baking ingredients or preserves and jams - you'll be saving money."
"Many store-bought foods come in reusable jars, and pasta jars are especially ideal for coffee lovers. Think of the clean and uniform, yet country-chic look you can give your coffee corner when you use these containers to store coffee beans and grounds. Just remember, you can only store coffee grounds for so long before they start to go stale. If sealed and stored away from light, your coffee can last months."
Cleaned pasta jars provide versatile, reusable storage because of their sturdy glass and larger size. They function well for baking ingredients, preserves, jams, sugar packets, and cream. Pasta jars create a clean, uniform, country-chic look when used to store coffee beans and grounds in a coffee corner. Coffee grounds will go stale over time, so airtight lids and storage away from direct light help preserve freshness for months. Decorating jars with paint, fabric, or chalkboard stickers personalizes them and can block light. Larger pasta jars can also serve as drinkware for iced coffee or as refrigeration containers for leftovers.
