3. Enjoy Fresh Salads

Use paper towel over the top of your bowl of lettuce. Doing so will help with absorption of moisture. Thus, it will keep the lettuce delicious and crisp.

Roll your fresh lemons and oranges on the countertop before slicing. Doing this breaks the fibers of the fruit and result in extracting more juice.

7. Spreadable Butter

Guests are coming, and you want soft butter for spreading? Grate it into small pieces that will allow it to soften quickly as it warms up on its own.
