Brilio.net - Instant noodles are a favorite choice for many people when they are hungry and have limited cooking time. Simply boiled or brewed for a few minutes, instant noodles are ready to be enjoyed with a delicious taste. To make it more filling, other ingredients such as sausages, meatballs, eggs, vegetables, or chicken are often added. In fact, there are many unique instant noodle creations circulating on social media.
However, there is a common problem when making instant noodles, which is that hands and scissors get dirty after opening the oil packet. Slippery and sticky oil often makes people reluctant to wash their hands in the middle of the cooking process.
A netizen named Gabriella offers a solution to keep hands and scissors clean when opening instant noodle oil packets. Usually, the oil packets are frozen first so that they remain clean when opened, but Gabriella, through the TikTok account @junicogabriella, has a different trick.
Initially before the packaging is opened, the oil must be squeezed or shaken first so that the contents are mixed. That way when it is removed later it will not remain in the plastic.

After that, cut the edge of the oil wrapper right in the middle. However, make sure to cut it just a little without making the wrapper open. That way the oil doesn't come out and hit the scissors.
"Use any scissors, as long as they're sharp," said Gabriella, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @junicogabriella, Monday (10/21).

Next, immediately pull both parts of the oil wrap until it tears in half. Let it sit for a while until all the oil falls onto the plate. With this trick, your hands and scissors will be oil-free. You don't have to bother washing your hands anymore.
"That's it, it's clean and doesn't get on your hands," said Gabriella, closing her explanation of the trick.
