Brilio.net - After months of use, knives can become dull. This definitely makes the pieces of food less neat. On the other hand, using a blunt knife also carries the risk of the tool slipping from your hand while it is being used.
Blunt knives can be sharpened with stones or special sharpening tools that are sold on the market. However, if you don't have the tools, don't worry because there are other tricks. One of the netizens on the FooD HuT YouTube account has a simple trick.
Reported by BrilioFood from YouTube FooD HuT, Friday (31/5), via an upload on the YouTube FooD HuT account, the woman who is familiarly called Ayisha explained that she only needs one kitchen tool which is usually used when cooking to sharpen a dull knife so it is sharp again.
How to sharpen a dull knife.
So, the kitchen tool that must be prepared is aluminum foil paper. To do this, crumple the paper until it is shaped like a ball. Then, rub the aluminum foil over the blade. You can also cut the wad of paper with a knife so that the friction process occurs. This friction process helps flatten and sharpen the edge of the knife.

Then, if you have sharpened it many times with aluminum foil, try using a knife to cut food. However, don't forget to wash the knife first with water and dish soap to keep it hygienic. If the knife is sharp, it means you have successfully practiced this trick. Even though the results are not as effective as a special sharpening stone for knives, using aluminum foil can be a practical alternative when you want to immediately sharpen a knife.
