I was visiting a friend while she was preparing dinner for her family. 😵💫 Imagine my surprise when I saw she had stretched cling film over her grater before using it.👇
You’ll be amazed when you find out why. I do the same now – here’s the reason ․․․ Full article in the first comment 👇
Sometimes, the simplest kitchen tasks turn out to be the most time-consuming. You just want to grate something quickly, but end up spending more time scrubbing the grater – especially when dealing with stubborn smells or sticky residues.
That’s where a clever hack comes in: wrap your grater in a layer of cling film or use a small freezer bag before you start.
This trick is especially helpful when grating strong-smelling or sticky foods like garlic, onions, or cheese.
Stretch the film tightly over the grater and grate your ingredients directly on top.
The grating still works effectively, but without direct contact – everything sticks to the film. No more tedious cleaning, and your grater stays fresh and odor-free.
After you’re done, just peel off the film and toss it with the scraps. No scrubbing, no lingering smell – more time for what matters.
What seems like a tiny hack quickly becomes an essential part of your kitchen routine. After trying it once, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.
