StarryNightsDreamer+Follow7 Kitchen Hacks That Make Cooking So Much Easier1. Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper liners before every use. They come in different sizes and seriously cut down on cleanup time. 2. Swap out your old bulky strainer for a compact stainless steel clip-on version. It saves so much drawer space and works just as well. 3. Use a large fruit cutter to slice up apples, pears, and more in seconds. It’s a huge time saver, especially for meal prep. 4. Grab a grape cutter for snack time—no more sticky fingers or uneven pieces. 5. Try disposable cutting boards with a prep bowl for meat. It keeps things clean and you just toss the mess. 6. Cover your microwave dishes with a glass microwave cover. Now, I barely ever have to scrub the inside! 7. Nesting measuring spoons are a must for anyone short on space. They snap together and fit anywhere. #amazonkitchenfinds #kitchenhacks #kitchengadgets #Food #Cooking220Share

derek12+FollowWhy I Stopped Refrigerating My ButterEver get annoyed at rock-hard butter that ruins your toast? Turns out, you don’t have to keep it in the fridge!

Angela Cooper+FollowThere's no need to shed tears when Chopping OnionsCut both ends off the onion, then slice it in half from top to bottom. Peel off the skin easily now that the ends are gone—way less mess. Place the flat side down and make horizontal cuts, but don’t slice all the way through. Turn the onion and chop down vertically. You’ll get perfect little pieces in seconds. This method saves so much time and seriously reduces the tears. I always thought chopping onions was a pain, but this trick changed everything for me. If you haven’t tried it, you’re missing out! #kitchenhacks #cookinghacks #usefultips #Food #Cooking80Share
Peter Christensen+FollowPerfect Cookie Edges Every Time With This Spatula TrickRight after your cookies come out of the oven, grab a silicone spatula with a flexible edge. While the cookies are still warm and soft, gently nudge the edges inward, shaping them into a perfect circle. Don’t press too hard—the silicone is gentle enough to avoid breaking or damaging the cookies. Let the cookies cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a rack. This hack saves me every time when I want bakery-style, picture-perfect cookies without any fancy tools.

Patrick Pope+FollowInstant Pot Pasta Hack!I love pasta but boiling water on my gas stove takes forever and always ends up making a mess. Microwave pasta just isn’t it for me—it gets too slimy. Here’s my Instant Pot pasta hack that saves time and cleanup: Check the pasta box for the lowest recommended cook time. Divide that number by 2, then subtract 2. (Example: 12-14 min? Use 12. 12/2=6, 6-2=4. Set Instant Pot for 4 min.) Add 2 cups of water and salt, just like you would for regular pasta. Stir the pasta after adding it to the pot to avoid sticking. Let the Instant Pot naturally release pressure when done. Rapid release can get messy—cover the valve with a towel if you must. Perfect pasta, no boiling over! #pastaeasy #instantpothacks #kitchenhacks #Food #Cooking20Share
