Picture this: You’re all excited to cook your favorite dish and have gathered all the ingredients. You have also switched on the gas stove. But as soon as you take out the vessel to cook your dish, you realize that it is stuck in another vessel. You find yourself pulling at them, trying to pull them apart. Seems related, right? We all have faced this challenge in the kitchen at one time or the other. And honestly, we know how frustrating this 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 disentangle stuck utensils in no time.
The video of this genius hack has been shared by digital creator Deepti Kapoor. In the clip, she is seen pouring water into stuck pots, ensuring that it goes inside. Then she applies adequate amount of oil on all the sides of the utensils. After this, she places the utensils on the gas stove and lets them boil for about 2-3 minutes. Once the job is complete, using a cloth or wearing gloves, she carefully separates the two utensils. She explains that this hack works because the steam from boiling and the grease from the oil make them easy to separate. So simple, right?
