Kitchen roll is now a staple for many households, but things have not always been this way.
The first paper towels were created in 1907 by the Scott Brothers, Clarence and Irvin, as a sanitary alternative to cloth towels in healthcare. However, it would take another 24 years before the first grocery paper towel was introduced, in 1931, by Arthur Scott, the head of Scott Paper.
The key to a successful, effective kitchen towel – such as those sold by Splesh – is that they’re formed in such a way that they soak up water. To do this, they must be loosely woven. This lets water travel into the paper by capillary action, with the liquid sticking to the fibers by adhesion.
Over the years there’s been a huge amount of back-and-forth between the great paper towel manufacturers of the world and those behind their potentially mortal enemy – the hand dryer. Actors on both sides have funded studies to suggest the other is less efficient and worse for the environment.
Whoever you believe, there’s little doubt that the humble paper towel has far more potential uses than the air dryer does. For one, it can be used to keep food fresh for longer.
If you’ve ever opened your salad bag to find your veggies have wilted before you had a chance to use them, then you are suffering from the impacts of excessive moisture in a cold environment. One way to slow this process is by placing a kitchen towel in the salad container. There it can absorb the excess moisture, keeping the greens crisper and fresher for longer.
Another canny kitchen hack that Splesh can help with is used to keep bread fresh. By wrapping your loaf in paper towels you can make a barrier between your bread and the air, which will keep the moisture locked in. If your bread has gone a little crispy and stale, by wrapping it in a sheet of Splesh and then microwaving it for ten seconds, you may be able to turn it into a soft and tasty treat again.
This trick can be used with microwave cooking with a lot of other foods as well. If you’re cooking vegetables, moisten your paper towel and wrap it around them, or else just place it in a dish on top of them. For reheated meals, lay the moist paper towel on top of the dish to help it keep its quality, while also providing extra protection against splashes.
