Good morning to you! This is just a quick tip about something I read online and tried that actually worked! Woot woot! I don't know about you, but sometimes I've had trouble with, say, cooking pasta and having the water boil over. Eeeek! When I saw a tip on Pinterest that said to lay a wooden spoon over the pot and it would prevent that from happening, I just had to try it! Sure enough, it works! I'm not exactly certain why it works, but so far, it has been successful. Yay! It probably is one of those things that doesn't work 100% of the time, but it's still a pretty high success rate, and I'll take it! :)
Being the curious sort, though, I did a search to see what I could find about why or how this works. According to several sites, the wooden spoon breaks up the bubbles as they near the surface, which prevents a boil over (over-boil?). A few other sites say the spoon prevents heat build-up in the center of the pot. Whatever the reason, I'm just a happy camper to find something so simple that helps! :)
Have a fabulous Monday!
