If its a jar you are going to use in one go, like the pasta sauce, take a sharp knife/fork/screwdriver and pierce the lid

Me? Sharp knife? Screwdriver? Aimlessly stabbing at the lid of a jar? You may as well call the ambulance now!

I do occasionally stab holes in the lid of a pickle jar when it's empty.

I did watch it one year. I kept clicking on the runner ups blog. The pink whisk or something like that.

Very inspiring! I LOVE cookery programmes but I tend to get addicted. Love all things masterchef too but haven't yet clicked on to the catchup for celebrity masterchef yet this season either.

If you are opening a jar that you are going to use all of, pasta sauce etc knock a hole in the top with a sharp knife, it takes the pressure off it and opens easily.
No use for jam or anything that you will use over time though.

My family do this but I am one of those strange people who hates salt and vinegar. I don't even have them on chips.
