If you’ve ever struggled with a faulty can opener or simply didn’t have one on hand at the most inopportune moment, this trick can be a real lifesaver.
Using a simple spoon as a can opener sounds like something out of a survival manual, but it’s completely real, effective, and surprisingly simple.
Had we known this before, many of us would have avoided unnecessary frustration in the kitchen or while camping.
The trick is to use a sturdy steel spoon to open conventional cans.
Spoon holder
While it doesn’t completely replace the ease of a can opener, it’s very useful in emergency situations or when tools aren’t available.
The process is simple: hold the can firmly on a stable surface and place the edge of the spoon against the lid, right where the metal seal forms.
Then, vigorously rub it back and forth with constant pressure until the metal begins to wear away. In just a few seconds, the spoon penetrates the aluminum.
Once a small opening is made, you can continue piercing the edge until you can lift the lid completely.
