While the sharp blades of kitchen shears are built for slicing, the jagged metal jaws don’t serve a cutting function at all. Instead, they’re a cleverly designed, multipurpose tool for various kitchen tasks. It’s a feature many overlook but one that can make life in the kitchen much easier.
A Built-In Nutcracker
One of the most common uses for this metal part is cracking nuts. By placing a nut between the teeth and applying pressure, you can break through tough shells with ease. This feature is perfect for nut enthusiasts who enjoy freshly cracked snacks.
Handling Meat and Bones
The metal jaws are also ideal for gripping and cracking small bones. Whether you’re preparing chicken or breaking down fish, they provide the extra leverage needed to tackle tougher tasks. Think of them as mini pliers built right into your scissors.
Struggling with a stubborn jar lid? These metal teeth can grip the lid securely, making it easier to twist open. This method often outperforms popular tricks like using a towel or running the lid under hot water.
