Did you come home with some fresh bread that just came out of the oven at the bakery? Freshly baked bread is quite possibly one of the tastiest things in the world. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long for bread to begin losing its heat and moisture and reverting to a dry piece of dough.
You can solve these problems quite easily with aluminum foil since it works perfectly as a heat preserver. All you have to do is to take a piece of aluminum foil and wrap it around your bread or hot sandwiches to preserve it longer. Aluminum foil works much better than containers because it takes to the shape of the bread and doesn’t leave any room for heat to escape.
Never Need To Clean Your Oven
Cleaning oven grease is not the most pleasant experience out there. Especially when you’re someone who tends to be heavy on the oil. Grime build-up however really easily avoidable. All you have to do is lay a large sheet of tin foil onto your oven tray whenever you cook. This protective sheet shields your oven from grease drippings, keeping it perfectly clean and oil-free. This can be super time-saving too as scraping off oven grease can be tedious.
Once you're done with the cooking, simply throw away the used foil and replace it with a new fresh sheet. You will probably never have to clean your oven again. Well, maybe that's an exaggeration, but this sure is helpful.
Create Beautiful Cake Decorations
If you're in a really creative mood, one of the coolest things you can do with aluminum foil is create some amazing cake decorations. The material has all the required traits (except being edible) that make it ideal for cake decorations — It's flexible, easy to mold, shiny and reflective, and can be a perfect cake decoration once you put some non-toxic paint on it.
You can play with aluminum foil to make it look like everything from flowers to jewelry or anything else that your imagination can think of. Speaking of foods, in the next entry we'll talk about another huge benefit aluminum has for tasty bread.
Create a Touchscreen Pencil
Apparently, aluminum foil interacts quite nicely with touchscreens. This means you can spare hundreds of dollars on the brand new and overly expensive Apple Pencil, or even save yourself a visit to the store next time you want to use an external object to handle your touchscreen phone.
Simply take any object of your liking, it could be a pencil or even a pin, wrap some aluminum foil at the tip of that object and it will work just like a proper touchscreen pen. Don't worry about it not being a brand name. Make it your own by using colors or even stickers and your friends will no doubt be impressed.
Reattach Floor Tiles With An Iron and Aluminum Foil
Is one of your floor tiles loose again? There’s no need to run to the store and replace it. We’ve all had the experience of stepping on the floor in our bathroom, only to hear a sudden “crack” sound telling us that a floor tile is now on the loose. There’s actually a really easy way to solve this problem.
All you have to do is to stick the tile back to its normal position, then take a sheet of aluminum foil and place it on the tile so that it is completely covered. Now just bring out your trusty iron and go over the tile as-if you’re ironing a piece of cloth. Do this for a few moments and the heat will get that tile fixed right into the floor. Neat, huh?
