Five Food Hacks Everyone Should Try

The internet is full of tricks and tips to improve your meals. And while some are borderline genius, others are downright ridiculous. To save you some time, we've listed five tried and tested food hacks that can make everyday meals taste like you’re eating at a Michelin star restaurant!

Cook Grilled Cheese Sandwiches With Mayonnaise

While you may have heard that the perfect grilled cheese sandwich requires butter on the outer sides of the sandwich, there’s something else you should try. One of the best hacks for a crispier sandwich is adding mayonnaise. Remember to put the mayonnaise on both sides, with the outer one frying directly on the pan. Your life will never be the same again!

Add Soy Sauce to Popcorn Butter

The more butter in popcorn, the better the taste. And by adding some soy sauce to the creamy butter, you will be bringing out the cheesy, savory, and nutty flavors of the popcorn. There’s no going back after discovering this hack!

Add Coffee To Brownie Batter

If you particularly love chocolate, try adding some coffee to your brownie batter. It can help to enhance the chocolaty flavor. Contrary to what you may think, if you add a moderate amount of coffee, you won’t get a mocha flavor but an intense, deep chocolaty explosion in your mouth.

Add Baking Soda When Boiling Spaghetti

If you’re looking for a ramen-like texture, add some baking soda to your spaghetti while boiling. It can help to make them lighter and bouncier. It’s best to add the baking soda to already boiling water.

Add Mustard To Mac and Cheese

Melted cheese, creamy butter, delicious macaroni, and a dash of flour for texture — what can be better than that? Well, a hack you simply must know is that adding mustard to this beloved meal can make it extra tasty and awesome. Mustard helps to bring out all flavors and marry them together in the perfect cheat meal.
