Viral Food Hacks: Cucumber Seal, Avocado Whisk, and Cookie Rounding
Joshua Weissman tests three popular kitchen hacks: sealing a cut cucumber with its own plastic wrap, scooping and mashing an avocado with a metal whisk, and shaping freshly baked cookies into perfect circles using a ring mold. Chef's tips: (1) The cucumber wrapping hack is effective but its long-term preservation effectiveness is uncertain. (2) Scooping avocado with a whisk works, but getting the avocado out of the whisk can be messy and tedious. (3) The cookie reshaping hack is highly effective, but it must be done immediately after the cookies are removed from the oven while they are still soft.
