Two-minute expert: How to open a stubborn jar
09:57 AM CDT on Wednesday, September 3, 2008
You're in the middle of a culinary masterpiece, and the jar lid of a crucial ingredient just won't budge. You've thumped it from the bottom, and maybe even run hot water over the lid. Perhaps you've tried to will it loose with all your grunts and groans.
And now, your wrist and fingers are aching.
Try a rubber band.
Not those dainty blue ones that clasp your bunch of cilantro or green onions together. Go for a thick one – the kind that comes with a bunch of broccoli.
Slip it around the edge of the lid, and give it a twist. The rubber band should give you the extra grip you need to open the jar.
