The best part about being on Twitter is that you never know what information you may come across. Some days, it’s a random trend that makes no sense, and some days it’s a tip that you are shocked you survived without all these years.
Like this cooking tip that doctor and author Nandita Iyer shared, on how to prevent milk from boiling over – by simply placing a wooden ladle over the pan.

Of course, Twitterati was soon to comment with even more nuskhas, because we’re desi after all, while also sharing their surprise over this new hack:
Do you know keeping any steel/ wooden ladle, breaks the fat layer( Malai) of milk allowing water vapour to escape. Hence, even after boiling milk will not spill out

Thanks for posting this! Why no one ever posted this anywhere earlier. Someone also needs to find out the hack to count pressure cooker whistle

Thinking back to all those times my mom made me wait for the milk to boil! If only I knew about this hack back then. *Sigh*
