Have you ever came across a situation where you bought a jar a sauce for your spaghetti or you simply want to open it to dip it with your delicious potato chips but it doesn't wants to open! No worries, Household tips is here for you!
Are you ready for moments like these? Here are five techniques to show off your man skills and open a stuck jar lid every time.
1. Brute force. This technique simply requires you to use your manly strength to twist open the jar lid. You get extra points if you do it without the assistance of a rag.
2. Wrap the lid in a dish towel or rubber glove. If brute force doesn’t work, give your self some extra traction by wrapping the lid in dish rag, or better yet, a rubber glove.
3. Break the vacuum seal. If the bottle is new and still vacuumed sealed, breaking the seal makes the lid easier to open. You can do this by using a bottle opener and pulling the lid away from the jar.
4. Run the lid under hot water. Running the lid under hot water for a minute will cause the metal to expand so the lid comes off more easily.
5. Heat up the lid with your stove. This method is proven to work as well but requires extra attention as you may hurt yourself in the process. Use a rag to wrap around the jar and slightly heat up the lid in a circular motion for 5 seconds as this will cause the metal to expand as well.
6. Tap the lid with a spoon. Sometimes food gets stuck in the lid which in turn causes the lid to get stuck. Give the lid a few strong quick taps on the side with a spoon in order to dislodge any food.
With all that, your sauce awaits you to lavish yourself in a sumptuous meal!
