Amandla okukhiqiza aqinisekisa ukutholakala kokudla okwanele kwamantshontsho, okwenza ukukhula okunempilo kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwezingulube. Imikhombe yokudla iklanyelwe ngokukhethekile ukuthuthukisa ukufinyelela kwamachwane ekondleni. Ingaxhunywa ngokuvikelekile ohlangothini noma phansi kwendawo ebiyelwe, iqinisekise ukuzinza nokuphatha kalula. Imikhombe iklanywe kucatshangelwa ubukhulu nezidingo zamazinyane engulube. Ayijulile futhi inomkhawulo ophansi, okuvumela amazinyane engulube ukuthi afinyelele kalula futhi adle ukudla ngaphandle kokuxineka. Enye yezinjongo eziyinhloko zomkhombe wezingulube ukunciphisa imfucuza. Imikhombe inezihlukanisi noma amakhompathimenti ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi ukudla kusatshalaliswa ngokulinganayo futhi mancane amathuba okuthi kuchitheke noma kuhlakazeke ngenxa yokunyakaza kwezingulube. Lesi sici sisiza ukulondoloza okuphakelayo nokuvimbela izindleko ezingadingekile, ngaleyo ndlela sithuthukise ukusebenza kahle kwezindleko. Ngaphezu kwalokho, umkhombe wezingulube ugcina ukudla kuhlanzekile futhi kuhlanzekile. Yenzelwe ukuvikela ukungcola okunjengokungcola noma ubulongwe ukuthi kungcolise ukudla. Imikhombe yenziwe ngezinto ezilula ukuzihlanzeka, ezimelana nokugqwala ezihlinzeka ngokuhlala isikhathi eside, indawo yokuzalanisa ehlanzekile. Imikhombe yokuncelisa izingulube, ngaphezu kokuhlinzeka ngolwazi olusebenzayo lokudla, ikhuthaza ukuzimela kwezingulube kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwamakhono okudla. Njengoba zikhula, umkhombe ungalungiswa futhi ubekwe endaweni ephakeme efanele usayizi wazo okhulayo, kuqinisekiswe ukuguquka okushelelayo kusuka kuketshezi kuya kokuphakelayo okuqinile. Lesi sici esilungisekayo sikhuthaza ukuncelisa okuzimele futhi sithuthukisa ukuzethemba kwamantshontsho engulube. Umkhombe wokudla izingulube awuzuzi nje kuphela ekukhuleni kwezingulube, kodwa futhi unenzuzo ekuphathweni jikelele kwepulazi lezingulube. Ngokusebenzisa imikhombe, okuphakelayo akuhlangani nomhlabathi, kunciphisa ubungozi bokungcola nokumosha. Kwenza kube lula ukuphatha ukudla ngendlela efanele futhi kwenza ukuba kuqashwe ngokunembile ukudla okudlayo, okuvumela abalimi ukuba balungise kalula izindlela zokudla ukuze bahlangabezane nezidingo zokudla okunomsoco wezingulube.
Umkhombe wezingulube uyithuluzi elibalulekile embonini yezingulube. Idizayini yayo igxile ekunikezeni isisombululo esikahle, esihlanzekile futhi esingabizi kakhulu sokuphakela amazinyane engulube. Imikhombe yokudla inegalelo empumelelweni nasekusebenzeni kahle kwepulazi lezingulube ngokunciphisa ukungcola kokudla, ukukhuthaza ukuhlanzeka kanye nokusekela ukukhula nokuthuthukiswa kwezingulube.
