How to open a jar whose lid is stuck or too tight.
Step
Step 1. Turn the jar over
Step 2. Tilt slightly (to the left)
Step 3. Tap the rim of the jar lid on a hard surface
Step 4. Tilt the jar in the opposite direction (right), and tap again
Step 5. Tilt the jar forward, then tap again
Step 6. Tilt towards your body, and tap again
Step 7. Turn the jar over, and now the jar lid will be able to be opened easily
Step 8. If the tapping method doesn't work, tie a rubber band around the rim of the jar lid to make it easier to grip
Step 9. If this method doesn't work either, you can put the jar upside down in a bowl of hot water
This will make the lid easy to open.
Tips
- This method of tapping the jar lid can take less than two seconds if you keep tapping the lid while moving the tilted jar in a circle.
- After tapping on the lid of the jar 5 to 6 times, put on the rubber gloves and twist the lid. The lid will open immediately.
