Also, retest your wet paper towel hack. You chose a red onion. Pretty red onions have never burned a single eye as they are a very mild tasting onion. Try again with white or even yellow onion.
Also, you let soda water tenderize a steak while the grill preheats? What do you think a 13 minute marination in carbonated water will do to a cut of meat? Smh
@@PaleHorseO.o She doesn't do retests as that would require her to admit she was wrong. She doesn't care about the truth, just views. She's as much of a hack as most of those TikTokers peddling fake hacks.
The egg cutting is probably for making devilled eggs. If you slice through the whole egg bits of yolk will sometimes cling to your knife and it makes it hard to get a clean cut.
the ice cream French toast hack comes from Jaque Pepin and the poached egg hack comes from Julia Childs, and that hack for cutting the hard boiled eggs would work great for deviled eggs.
Best onion hack I've ever used and works for every onion without wasting paper towels: put the onion in the freezer for 5-10 min (depending on size) and then cut it up as quickly as you safely can. The cold shock delays the chemical reaction that makes you tear up but it's not enough time to actually freeze the onion.
I've been cooking my bacon with water since I was first introduced to that method a few years ago and it works like a charm. If I have a lot of bacon to cook, then I'll pop it into the oven. I'm definitely going to try the spoon hack for peeling eggs. 😊
I've heard that potato "hack" for removing salt my whole life and it drives me insane. Of course your soup will be less salty if you increase the volume by adding a potato, that's how math works.
The potato thing isnot math, it's science. Potatoes are very porous with virtually no sodium. Any membrane wants to have the same amount of salt on either side of it, so by osmotic pressure, the salt will enter the potato to balance both sides out. She should have cut the potato into slices or smaller chunks. More surface area, you will remove more salt from the liquid.
Potato hack works, in India we do it all the time. But you've to use smaller pieces and more pieces so there's multiple potatoes and surface area to absorb the salt. It can take salt down a notch but not if you've double salted it or something
The potato hack works very well, actually. But one single potato won't actually do much. Whenever we accidentally oversalt the beans, we put 4 or five diced potatos and it works like a charm. I can't see how a single half of a potato will do anything 😂
The bacon hack should not be a fail because in my country we cook our meats like this all time. You should definitely give it a retry :D. Cook it in water on LOW HEAT and cover it with a lid until the water evaporates achieving a crispy bacon! Hope this helps! :D
I worked at Vons/Safeway in their bakery, and the shredded sharp cheddar mixture we used for our cheese breads and cheese bagels made the BEST homemade cheezits! You want it to be a thick shred of sharp cheddar cheese, dust the shreds lightly with some wheat flour, and then put a thin layer of them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake them at 425 for about 8-9 minutes. You'll get the best results if you add a little oven-safe cup of boiling water to the bottom rack of your oven right before you close the oven door. It replicates the steam process that our commercial ovens used to get the right amount of toasty brown-ness!
There is a hack for peeling hard boiled eggs. Run them under cold water while peeling them. The cold helped the egg pull away from the shell while the running water acts like a wedge as you’re peeling the shell.
How is this an egg poaching hack? This is just the regular way to do it! Most chefs make them like this, I wouldn't even know how to make them a different way 😂
@honeysuckle I strain them, and put into one bowl. I don't use vinegar in the water, as you can see it didn't help much. Straining gets rid of the runiness. They won't stick together when they simmer!
Agreed! This is how we were taught to poached eggs in culinary school and how I made eggs Benedict during my restaurant chef days. The vinegar really helps.
The bacon hack is just reinvention of the wheel. I do mine in the oven for 20 minutes or so and it always comes out nicely, and it's easy to pour the fat out into my bacon fat container. But just cooking at medium/medium high on the stove will get you crispy bacon. If you desperately need it straight put a cast iron hamburger weight or smaller skillet on them.
12:20 I saw someone in primary school (I'm in secondary school now but when I was younger) peel an egg like this: he first peeled a small hole at the top and then a slightly larger hole at the bottom and he blew on the small hole and then the egg fell out
Sparkling water is really great as a marinade but for cheaper meat. If you would like kebab style grill you can buy not so expensive red meat, cut it into medium size pieces and marinate in a sparkling water plus fresh onion rings, some salt and spices before grilling and it is simply wonderful. In my country good stake would be two weeks salary if you would like to give it to the whole family. But we have shashlyk on real wood fire and it`s delicious.
For hard-boiled eggs, here's an easier trick that always works for me: smack the bottom, smack the top, roll it all the way around, grab a piece, and let gravity do the rest. Sounds wild, but I’ve been doing this since I was a kid. XD
I was already craving deviled eggs and now I know the perfect hack for cutting them, something I desperately needed because my eggs always come out looking so ugly and uneven haha
The egg poaching "hack" is just how restaurants cook large batch poached eggs for food service. It's not a hack. it's a cooking technique. Cook them 90% of the way, chill in ice water, then for service, you quickly dunk the poached egg in boiling water for 10 seconds to heat the egg through and finish the cooking. Restaurants that are famous for eggs benedict cook their poached eggs like this. The vinegar in the water coagulates the proteins in the egg white.
I still don't understand why ppl don't cook bacon on a sheet pan/cookie sheet... 375° for 20 minutes...you can do so much bacon and if you line sheet with foil...easy clean up!
There is another hack for peeling hardboiled eggs. You put them between two plates and just give it a few good shakes. Most of the shell is removed, except for maybe a few little bits here and there.
I've always diced onions this way, lol. I've been a professional cook for 40+ years. Super easy and you can easily control the dice, from minced to a large dice, chop on!! 🎉
Easy peel eggs: use an instant pot! Put the trivet in the bottom, put your eggs on the trivet, add enough water to touch the bottom of the eggs, seal the instant pot, set the timer for 6 minutes, and do a quick steam release. I transfer them to ice water while I peel them. But the shells come off so easily!
The potato hack works! Here in Brazil, when you oversalt your feijoada (a black bean and pork stew), you add one or two potatoes to reduce the salt. It actually helps a lot!
Honestly if you need to separate yolks (especially a lot), just crack them all into the same bowl and scoop the yolks out with your hand from underneath.
Love that you add the original creators names on screen! Could you also link the videos you’re using in the description too so we can check them out too!
I do bacon with water and it always works.. You should fry it on low with oil for about 3-4mins then add the water. You were dry frying it at the end :(
To the commenter that said "why would I ever need to separate eggs that way by slicing it in half?" Must not be much of a party host lol. Deviled eggs require the egg yolk to be mixed with mayo, seasonings, and hot sauce. Then you use a piping bag to put the mixture back into the egg white.
When I looked at the new my heart did 5 flips when I saw that tick tock was being baned, but I love your videos, recepies, and cookbook. Have a happy new year and God bless you # Christian girl life
My hack for dicing onions: 1) dice while the onion is cool, not room temperature. 2) Don't cut the root end off. I've been doing this for years and have not shed a tear yet.
I didnt even know what a poached egg was until this video and your telling me i have been making perfectly poached eggs every week when im feeling big back?
So many of these are just cooking techniques. Add vinegar to your water when you poach eggs? Like, yyyyyeah, that's how you poach eggs. Bake cheese? Uh huh, that's cheese crisps.. frying bacon with water? That's just frying bacon with extra steps, like honestly that's so stupid - you are boiling bacon until the water evaporates at which point, guess what? You're just frying bacon!!! 100 hour potatoes? That's potato Mille Feulle, like there's so many examples of "this crazy food hack" just being "the way you cook this thing which has been unchanged sometimes for hundreds of years" 😂 - all these wee lil people on TikTok thinking they've just reinvented the wheel. "OMG, did you know that if you put a potato in an oven at 250 degrees for an hour, it created this crazy delicious skin!???"
With the spoon and egg trick maybe personal opinion but white egg shells are not a "thick" as color eggs so that maybe where some of your trouble came in might help to roll it a but first before giving it ago and honestly the way I peel hard boiled eggs is to fill a mason jar half way with your eggs 2-3 small eggs in what I want to say is a quart jar and then just over the eggs with water shake it for a minute and the eggs are peeled and normal do not have to rinse after wards
It is shocking to me that eggs are hard to find there when here in Costa Rica there are like 3 houses in my neighborhood that sell eggs and a car pass by selling them every Sunday! And I live in the capital, 15 minutes away of the downtown.
Hack for pealing eggs: 1- place them on ice water a few seconds immediately after the boiling (around 30s) 2- hit gently with a spoon the top of the egg until you hear a POP (that’s the membrane) 3- hit firmly (harder than before) al around the shell 4- create “an entry point”, AKA remove with your fingers a piece of shell 5- use a spoon at the entry and try to go around the egg “lifting” pieces of the shell With a little practice you’ll get the best results Also for the perfect creamy yolk, just boil water, then leave the eggs for 8 mins, after immediately put them on icy water Enjoy the perfect egg shape =) Also great videos
Interestingly, this "bacon in water" is not a TikTok hack and used by chefs all over the world. But maybe in a slightly different way. I did it myself ouple of time and yes, works great.

Bacon hack actually works. You just need to turn down the heat when water almost evaporates so it doesn't burn.
Also, retest your wet paper towel hack. You chose a red onion. Pretty red onions have never burned a single eye as they are a very mild tasting onion. Try again with white or even yellow onion.

Came to the comments to see if someone else was thinking deviled eggs!
Eggcellent observation!
Absolutely for deviled eggs!

I hope you respond
That’s amazing!! 💗💗
I think that the French toast would be better if the bread stayed in the ice cream for longer, and it would be a real dessert
For the egg yolk Use and Empty water bottle that you squeeze and then release above the yolk and you don't have garlic fingers and it works for real.
To the commenter that said "why would I ever need to separate eggs that way by slicing it in half?" Must not be much of a party host lol. Deviled eggs require the egg yolk to be mixed with mayo, seasonings, and hot sauce. Then you use a piping bag to put the mixture back into the egg white.
Salt reducing hack: use dough balls instead of potato and discard dough balls before serving, reduces salt significantly. Try it!
The first egg hack is great for Deviled Eggs.
If you have time you can soak the onion in cold water after you cut the ends and peel it
For the onion hack: put ball of cold water works better then napkin.
Good chunk of comrade eggs have sacrificed themselves to entertain us in this video
another great hack for not crying when cutting onions is just having a really bad eyesight and wearing contact lenses :)
I’ve used ice cream in place of milk for French toast, coffee, and muffins lol
Cute top! Where can i buy same😊
So uh, that wasn't a hack
That's just how you poach eggs professionally 😂😂😂
Pft, maple syrup is for armatures! Mrs. Butterworth has never steered anyone wrong! ;)
I learned the French toast hack years ago from Jacques Pepin
I had no idea that was a hack for onion I have been dicing them that way for over thirty years lol
The water with bacon works.
The best way to cook bacon is in the oven!
The potato hack works but you have to add the potato uncooked to the soup, as it cooks it absorbs the saltiness in the food
the purpose of the hole in the middle is to keep the cheese more in the square shape instead of spilling out
The potato hack should work given the science behind it, i.e. Osmosis. Salt molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration …
Nah. Ann Readon debunked this already
9:26 my dad tries this hack and it works (no long nails though 😅)
When I looked at the new my heart did 5 flips when I saw that tick tock was being baned, but I love your videos, recepies, and cookbook. Have a happy new year and God bless you # Christian girl life
The soup is probably more creamy because of the starch in the potato. Potatoes DO suck up salt, but maybe not that much.
for the egg yolk it works but with no nails
The potato one my grandma use it , it actually work (i think you should cut the potato first )
The potato hack has been around at least since the 60s. Maybe longer.
My rule is... It's only a successful hack if i either--
Can do it drunk.
Or can do it with arthritis hands.
My hack for dicing onions:
1) dice while the onion is cool, not room temperature.
2) Don't cut the root end off.
I've been doing this for years and have not shed a tear yet.
you refrigerate onions?
😂@@TracyKMainwaring
I do with leftovers so thats how I found out... just pop them in the fridge for a bit.@@TracyKMainwaring
@marlena. yeah, if I have half an onion left over it goes in the fridge. The fresher the onion, the more irritating to the eyes
Anyways how you cut the onion. The hack is bs. "attractsto tears", how the onion knows when you cry? Or have tiers for other reasons like allergies.
I didnt even know what a poached egg was until this video and your telling me i have been making perfectly poached eggs every week when im feeling big back?
I need that last hack. Because I can't peel an egg that cleanly.
I run hot water while chopping onions to avoid tears.
Ty for add the audio in other languagues

"OMG, did you know that if you put a potato in an oven at 250 degrees for an hour, it created this crazy delicious skin!???"
The bacon hack works! But add less water
actually the water bacon hack does work... just have to do it at a low enough temp.

I tried that bacon hack sometime ago, and it got rid of the flavour but it did stay flat 😀
I don't know why but i feel like i saw this already Deja vu

425° is too hot! 375 for 20 mins is perfect
9:31 you have to use fresh egg
Those were top sirloin? those looked like filets...if they are filets, those are already tender..😂
Why is it a 3 out of 10 IF it doesnt work??
Hack for pealing eggs:
1- place them on ice water a few seconds immediately after the boiling (around 30s)
2- hit gently with a spoon the top of the egg until you hear a POP (that’s the membrane)
3- hit firmly (harder than before) al around the shell
4- create “an entry point”, AKA remove with your fingers a piece of shell
5- use a spoon at the entry and try to go around the egg “lifting” pieces of the shell
With a little practice you’ll get the best results
Also for the perfect creamy yolk, just boil water, then leave the eggs for 8 mins, after immediately put them on icy water
Enjoy the perfect egg shape =)
Also great videos
Fluffy means there's fluff in it. I hope your french bread is fluffless
chewy tendons🤢😂easier to shove the bacon into the oven the ice cream toast looked yummy love your shirt so pretty another great video
