Difficulty opening a jar?!
I'm having difficulty opening a new jar of pasta sauce!. I've tried running it under hot water, using a towel, and my bottle opener won't fit around the lid!. Any suggestions!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
The only other way I know of undoing them is to combine both the hot water, and the tapping method as described!.
I would suggest you spend a few dollars on a jar opener that will open a large variety of sizes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Tap the edge of the jar with the wooden handle of a steak knife (wrap the blade in a towel for safety), the wood will ensure you don't break the glass unless you use excessive force!.
Tap a few times all the way around!. Keep trying!.
also take care to notice if the tomato sauce splatters out of the jar when you open it, if so the difficulty is probably due to added pressure from some kind of contamination and spoilage!. DO NOT EAT THE SAUCE in that case!.

Use a butter knife, the flat edge and tap it in about 4 different spots!. You want to see the indentations!.
It should come of very easily then!. Please don't use a big knife, I've never had the glass shatter using a buuter knife!. If you break the glass then you hit it WAYYYYYYYY to heard!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
