What’s that weird serrated part on kitchen scissors for? (You’re ignoring a brilliant tool.)

✅

Emergency handle for slippery lids

It works like a rubber can opener, but integrated.

🧼 How to keep it clean and safe

This tool comes into contact with food, so clean it thoroughly.

✅ Advice:

Wash by hand or in the top rack of the dishwasher.

Dry thoroughly to prevent rust (especially on metal prongs).

Never force: light pressure is sufficient.

⚠️ Avoid using it on hot pans and sharp edges, which can damage the prongs.

💬 Summary: The best tools are the ones you already own.

We buy gadgets.

We clutter our drawers.

We are looking for the “perfect” tool.

But the truth is that:

Some of the smartest kitchen tools are already in your hands.

And that tooth on your kitchen scissors?

It’s no coincidence.

It’s an ingenious design: a little Swiss Army knife hidden in plain sight.
