Reported by BrilioFood on Wednesday (26/6), the kitchen tool in question is aluminum foil. Yup! This paper is usually used to wrap food. However, its rough and sharp surface can be used to sharpen blender knives, you know.

Next, turn on the blender and let the aluminum foil be finely chopped. If so, turn off the blender and throw away the aluminum foil. To make it safer to use for food, don't forget to wash the blender thoroughly so that there is no remaining aluminum foil stuck to it.

Reporting from casadesante.com, the abrasive texture of the foil will help remove dullness and restore sharpness. When a dull blender blade rubs against small pieces of aluminum foil, the contact between the blade and the aluminum foil creates a mild sharpening (abrasive) effect. This is what then makes the blender knife sharper.

However, please note that aluminum foil is not as effective as when you use a professional knife sharpener. Apart from that, avoid sharpening the blender knife using aluminum foil too often. Not without reason, this can help avoid potential long-term damage to the blender blade.
