Chef shares brilliant kitchen hack to save tin foil and people are grateful for it: 'Wow, so simple'

Each hack can make a person's work in the kitchen easier and faster. After all, anyone who has worked in a kitchen knows how annoying a stain that refuses to go away and a foil you've torn the wrong way can be. Now, if someone is searching for a way to fix their foil, they might be in luck. Chef Robbie Bell, who goes by @robbiebell8 on TikTok, has shared what he called the "best kitchen hack ever by my boy Shaun Hurrell (@barriocomida), one of the UK’s best chefs," to fix a tin foil.

As the video began, the chef gave a huge shoutout to Hurrell for showing him the hack. In the meanwhile, he took off parts of the foil in weird ways to demonstrate the hack. He said, "If your tin foil ever gets knotted up like that, take a little bit off." Now you would need to scrunch up the foil in a ball. Rub it on the wonky and unevenly torn edges and from whichever portion the foil is giving you trouble. The knotted edges would now come off and you can continue using your foil however you like and without any hassle.

People took to the comments section to applaud the hack, while quite a few people talked about a hack for cling films in a similar scenario. @rebekahbaily commented, "Whaaaaaat! The amount of foils I have thrown out because of that. Wow, so simple. Thank you. @justsomedewd remarked, "Wish I saw this 2 days ago. Had to line a tray with pieces because I couldn't fix it." @charliedaulby expressed, "So strange this is on my feed. Had this problem last night, got about 2 meters left."

@clarefoster0 wrote, "Wonder if there is something like this for cling film but thanks for this one." @ambernectar659 shared the much-requested cling film hack, "Thank you. Also if your cling film does the same, put it in the fridge. Plastic does not like heat." It seems that the creator has saved a lot of foil and cling films through one video.

In another similar story, a woman shared a pasta hack to avoid making a big mess in the kitchen sink. The hack also helps avoid broken spaghetti which is considered a big blunder while making any form of pasta. With this hack, instead of straining the pasta with a colander, one has to put a lid on the pasta utensil and drain the water through it. This would lead to no broken pasta and no messy sink. It also saves one from using another utensil. You can make a one-pot pasta even with a normal recipe using this method and mix the sauces and vegetables into it. It is an overall handy hack to make pasta easily.

The hack received a lot of attention and quite a few people believed that they won't be going back to their old ways of making pasta. @amandapleas.com joked, "I started doing it, but then I lost three noodles in the sink while doing it." @hype_squad_ceo wrote, "Love this, I use it all the time."
