- Twist the attachment to choose between spray function or aerated (which adds bubbles to boost volume)
- The attachment swivels so you can direct water
- Approved by WRAS (Water Regulations Approval Scheme) to meet stringent UK safety regulations.
Steam veg
Steamed vegetables are more nutritious – and they use less water. Steam in a tub in the microwave, or stack a steamer over another pan. No more soggy carrots and floppy broccoli.
Make one-pot meals
Who wants to wash up a pile of pans? There are loads of ideas for one-pot meals out there – from curries and stews to pasta and bakes. You’ll use less water, less energy and have less washing up to do afterwards.
Use a saucepan lid
Adding a lid prevents water from evaporating off, so you won’t get such a steamy kitchen. It’s also a good idea to only use enough water to just cover foods like pasta and vegetables – you don’t always need a full pan.
Re-use cooking water
Water from cooking can be used in sauces and gravy, or even cooled and used in the watering can. Cooking water can provide nutrients for plants, helping them grow. Just make sure it’s not too salty and don’t use starchy water from pasta, rice or potatoes too frequently in the same spot, as this could encourage mould growth.
