Picture this: you’re all excited to cook your favourite dish and have gathered all the ingredients. You’ve even switched on the gas stove. But as soon as you take out the utensil to cook your dish in, you realize it’s stuck in another utensil. You find yourself tugging at them, trying to separate them. Sounds relatable, right? We’ve all faced this challenge in the kitchen at some point. And honestly, we know how frustrating it can be. But hey, there’s a solution for everything, and this common kitchen problem is no exception. We recently came across a genius hack on Instagram that shows how you can separate stuck utensils in no time.
The video of this genius hack was shared by digital creator Deepti Kapoor. In the clip, she is seen pouring water into the stuck utensils, ensuring it seeps inside. She then applies a generous amount of oil to all sides of the utensils. Next, she places the utensils over a gas stove and allows them to simmer for about 2-3 minutes. Once done, using a cloth or wearing gloves, she carefully separates the two utensils. She explains that this hack works because the steam from simmering and the lubrication from the oil makes it easier to separate them. So simple, right?
