Don’t Throw Away the Oil Cap Ring It’s More Useful Than You Think!

4. Divide Large Quantities

If you buy oil in bulk, divide it into smaller bottles. This reduces the number of times the main container is opened — and minimizes exposure to air and light.

✅ Tip: Only keep a small bottle near the stove for daily use, and store the rest elsewhere.

Final Thoughts

Oil may seem like a long-lasting ingredient, but without the right care, it can oxidize, go rancid, or lose its flavor.

By following these simple tricks — especially reusing the cap ring as a built-in pourer — you can keep your oil fresher, longer, and reduce unnecessary waste.
