Have you recently come across an old trousers or a T-shirt and were about to put it in the bin? And how a bout those old glassy jars standing on the kitchen cabinet under the dust? They do not necessarily have to end in a bin. There are actually plenty of things that we daily get rid of because we think they will not be useful anymore. But that is not true.

I added some more extraordinary ingredients – especially fresh fi...
