Brilio.net - When working in the kitchen, unexpected incidents often occur. One of them is a plate stuck in a bowl. This may happen because plates with a size similar to the width of the bowl tend to get stuck more easily when placed in it. As a result, the plate is difficult to remove.
This kind of incident is often encountered when washing dishes. Instead of putting them upside down, some people often stack the plates and bowls that have been washed. As a result, the plates placed on top of the bowls often get stuck.
This problem can be worse if the stuck plate and bowl are made of glass. To remove the stuck plate, of course, it cannot be done by slamming both of them. Whereas if it is directly pried, it is likely that many parts will be scratched.
If you encounter such a problem, don't worry. There is a trick that can be done. This trick was once shared by TikTok user @syazainal21. Through one of the videos uploaded, he initially had difficulty removing a stuck glass plate. Even though he tried to pry it off with a knife, the plate didn't move at all.

To remove the stuck plate, he also used one ingredient. Reported by brilio.net from TikTok @syazainal21 on Friday (9/5), the ingredient used is cold water. This cold water will help shrink the plate inside. The slightly smaller position of the plate will create more space, so it can be easily taken.

For the method, you just pour cold water into the bowl until it is full. Make sure the water is really cold, okay. In the position where the plate is completely submerged, pry the edge with the tip of a knife.

When there is a little space when the plate is pried, the water will go straight to the bottom of the plate. Well, continue the prying process until the water under the plate is full. As a result, the plate will float and can be taken easily.

In the video, TikTok user @syazainal21 explains further from a scientific perspective. According to him, cold water will make the shape of the plate in the bowl shrink. When the plate shrinks, it becomes easier to pick up.
On the other hand, if you use hot water, the object that touches it can expand or widen. If you use hot water, it is better not to pour it in the bowl, but only outside it.
So, the bowl and the plate inside it should be soaked in another container filled with hot water. Well, the hot temperature will make the shape of the bowl expand even more. That way, the inside of the bowl will be wider, which then makes the plate inside it can be taken just like that.
"Hot water is applied to the outer container, if the inner container is exposed to hot water, it will expand more (if hot water is placed in the outer container of the bowl, if cold water is placed in the inside of the bowl)," he explained further.
