During the most difficult year, people discovered the joy of cooking and a bunch of kitchen hacks that make life easier. Many shared their hacks on TikTok and Instagram, and we collected the 4 most popular.
Here are the 4 greatest cooking hacks of 2020:
1. Make an omelette sandwich
This is a great hack for omelette lovers. An Australian man demonstrated on TikTok how to make a tasty breakfast with eggs and bread. He whisked 3 eggs together and then poured them into a hot pan. He added 2 sliced of buttered bread and then flipped the omelette once the eggs were cooked. He then added a couple of sliced of cheese and bacon on each slice of the bread and then flipped the sandwich.
2. Strain your pasta the right way
This video demonstrates the “wrong” and “correct” way to drain your pasta went viral on TikTok. In the video, the man, instead of transferring the penne from a pan to a colander, he covered the pot with the sifter, inverted side down and then poured the water through the sieve. He didn’t lose a single penne.
3. Juice a lemon without losing seeds
This is a super easy and quick hack that you’ll love. Don’t slice your lemon into wedges, just poke a hole halfway into the lemon using a toothpick. This tiny hole will allow you to get the lemon juice without the seeds.
4. Cut your cake with dental floss
Cutting a cake in equal proportions is challenging, so TikTok users found a super easy way to solve this problem. Dental floss slides through the cake super easy, so you won’t even need a knife.
