Your Pot Of Boiling Water Will Never Overflow Again

Boiling water is one of the first things you learn to do when being introduced to the basics of cooking. It can seem to take forever for the water to start to boil, but once it gets going — it really gets going. Unfortunately, that can lead to it overflowing and creating a huge mess!

If this starts happening to you, don’t turn the heat down, instead grab a wooden spoon. Place the wooden spoon against the top of the pot and your pot will no longer boil over. How? Well the spoon pops the bubbles at the top before they can grow too big and spill over the edge. Genius!
