But with a little creativity and some clever kitchen hacks, you can make cooking a lot easier and more enjoyable. In this blog post, we’ve compiled some of the most unique and practical kitchen hacks that will save you time and energy in the kitchen.

1. Use a binder clip to hold your cookbook open: Sick of your cookbook always shutting on you? Clip a binder clip onto the page you’re using and stand it up on the counter.
2. Use a muffin tin for portion control: Portion control can be a challenge, but using a muffin tin can help. Use the cups to measure out ingredients or to portion out meals.
3. Freeze herbs in olive oil: Preserve fresh herbs by freezing them in olive oil. Simply chop the herbs and mix them with olive oil, then freeze in an ice cube tray. Pop out a cube as needed for cooking.
4. Use a potato masher to make guacamole: Instead of using a fork to mash your avocados, use a potato masher. It makes the job quicker and easier.
5. Use a pizza cutter to chop herbs: Save time and make chopping herbs a breeze by using a pizza cutter. Simply roll it over the herbs to chop them finely.
6. Use a vegetable peeler to slice cheese: Struggling to slice cheese thinly? Use a vegetable peeler to create thin slices that are perfect for sandwiches and salads.
7. Keep your cutting board from slipping with a damp towel: To keep your cutting board from sliding around, place a damp towel underneath it. The towel creates a non-slip surface that keeps your cutting board in place.
8. Use a muffin tin to cook eggs: Crack eggs into a muffin tin and bake them in the oven for an easy breakfast that’s perfect for meal prep.
9. Use a spoon to peel ginger: Instead of using a peeler to remove the skin from ginger, use the edge of a spoon. The spoon removes just the skin, without wasting any of the ginger flesh.
10. Use a slow cooker liner for easy clean up: Hate cleaning your slow cooker? Use a slow cooker liner for easy clean up. Simply remove the liner and toss it in the trash.
