HouseholdHacker do a face reveal
HouseholdHacker
What camera do you guys use? You produce pretty neat footage
@Roger Just check our older videos. Face is revealed probably 100 times. Just prefer being behind the camera.
@Shione We use 2 cameras.
1. Sony A7S II with a Distagon FE 35mm f/1.4 Lens,
2. Panasonic HC x1000 which has a mounted lens
Both can shoot in 4k and have their pros and cons.

Thanks hon
boil your eggs with salt water. trust me it makes the shell slide off fast. i was a prep cook and needed to peel 50 eggs a day in under five mins.
burntrubberballs Exactly
I don't usually use salt when I cook. How much salt do you use for a 2 quart pan of eggs?
Nancy Walpole more is better than less. i just pour some in and stir.
Older eggs peel A LOT easier than brand new fresh eggs too.
Baking soda also works...
3:45 - A good tip for viewers would be to *not* use the blade of a knife to scrape items off the board, you'll seriously damage the blade edge. Flip it over and use the spine of the knife.
thanks I always used the blade part now I know!
thanks I always used the blade part now I know!
Everyone you're talking too has a cheap Walmart stainless steel knife that MAYBE costs $5 so who cares?
It doesn't matter if it's a $5 knife or a $500 knife, there isn't any need to carelessly damage or blunten the blade - a quick tip like this will greatly extend the life of any blade or knife, people like that will care.
I pay $5 for convenience, not for a product I want to last.
definitely use a pizza slicer to chop veggies. if you think nature made a mistake when giving us 10 fingers.
Or use the damn tool and use five fingers and expand Beyond just vegetables... Ohhhhhh
@@nyeusiknowledge4873 WDYM 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Or a mezza luna
I work at a Farmers market and I'm solve all you problems when fruit gits to ripe to sell we ether feed the animals or eat it. We manage to use sizers to cut a pineapple
You could argue the same for any other cutters used for this purpose, though the advertised product is a relatively safe method.
the clever cutter looks pretty good. i was pretty surprised it actually cut a cucumber that well,
then was really surprised that it cut the cheddar cheese at all without sticking and getting all messed up.
Because it's american plastic cheese that can't stick it's cancer cheese
Yea, I imagine it works just as good as a KNIFE.
I can do it faster just using my chefs knive. And that knive i can resharp many times.. After a Year you can throw away the scissors
8:32 You break that pasta, you break my heart...
Every time someone breaks uncooked pasta, an Italian grandmother dies
TheScott10012 Well That makes me guilty of genocide.
No . . . not Noni.
LOL! I never understood why people would break uncooked pasta anyway.

So it can fit in the collander??
But I like to break the pasta so I can eat it
“Unpeel” an egg? It’s hard enough peeling one so I’m having a hard time imagining un-peeling one.

A Pizzacutter as an alternative?
Why not a knife? Way faster, more versatile, and far easier to clean.....
Wupme Thank you!
I was thinking the exact same thing. I've seen people who know how to handle a chef's knife go through veggies at insane speeds.
Problem is, that would require actually learning skills.
Because it’s harder
Wupme, why not a chainsaw. Phil swift told me it’s a good way to deal damage. Better then a knife at least
The cutter thing was meant to take some risk away from people who shouldn't or can't use a knife safely. Again, something meant for people who have physical difficulties that's being marketed to average people due to money making.
9:05 that guy on tv is on steroids
2:40
For a second I thought he said, “Do not cook for 4 minutes.”
*”So now let’s put it at 4 minutes”*
Off-brand chef baskets sometimes show up at dollar stores. Pretty useful for something cheap that takes up very little space.
I love the pineapple thing. Been using it for years. My only issue with it is that it doesn't have a cover. It's scary sharp and will damage things or cut you bad if you don't store it carefully. The solution is to put it inside a plastic cereal bin.
1:17 "allright times up let's do this"
me: LEEEROOOOOY JEEEEEKIIIINNNNNS
So you’re saying it’s more likely for someone to have a pizza cutter then a knife
They never said it was more likely that people have a pizza cutter over a knife. Their videos highlight alternatives to "As Seen on TV" products that many people already have, so go ahead and write that down.
That being said what kind of adult doesn't have a pizza cutter, anyway?

i have been cooking my potatoes in the micro for years and not just one at a time just put potatoes in a chuck wagon circle not touching anywhere and set for 6 to 8 minutes depending on size of patato and they come out perfect every time oh and you can just set them on the microwave plate nothing else unless yer paranoid then you can lay them on a paper towel
Put a cup of water with it.... If u want soft potato cuz many times microwave dries out the potato....
I don’t know it seem like you were having a hard time when you were cutting with the pizza cutter the as seen on TV product, just looked a lot easier regardless thanks
I think that's more so because of how terrible a pizza cutter is for cutting vegetables rather than saying the TV product was good. A real knife is just as easy as the TV product, and with a few hours practice, much safer and faster.
Waldo Some people can’t use normal knifes, so it would be safer for them.
A little sound effect with “cutting the cheese?”
Jim Leon, cutting the cheese should probably be it’s own sound effect.
Pepperoni dogfart
now i want eat baked potatoes, thanks for an idea for a dinner
Same! 👍🏼🥔
Lol. There's no replacement for a good chef knife, cutting board and saute pan. I love the ideas though. I will probably buy the pineapple core tool just to plop a candle in it at my next BBQ.
The egg piercing device has been a thing in the Netherlands for years. I don't remember anyone in my family ever not having one of these. Just as standard in a Dutch kitchen as forks are. Also: the reason you mangled your eggs while peeling is because you are doing it wrong: Place egg on the table under your palm and build up pressure until it cracks then roll it back n forth a couple of times. Comes right off.
I just crack the bottom of it with a spoon, insert the spoon, rotate it around the egg, and then separate.
I had to look away on the egg gadget because it reminded me of one of those finger prickers that they have at doctors offices
Who makes bacon in the microwave??
The Apollo me
Dj FMA yeah I agree with that guy
I'm about to lol

people with a BaconBoss
Cooking bacon in the microwave can yield perfectly cooked bacon with a fraction of the time taken and mess made. You also don't have to stand over it while doing it leaving you free prepare the rest of the meal while it cooks. I only use this for a very small batch of bacon. Anything more than 4-5 strips is best done in the oven on a pan.
People who cut down trees with chainsaws and axes are not lazy because you use an axe only and it takes more effort. It's more about being smart and using the right tool for the right job at the right time.
Why does everyone throw away pineapple cores??? They're just as tasty and only slightly harder.
PlagueNPestilence that would be good for a teething baby
😲
PlagueNPestilence I’d rather eat the outer lemon (I actually do that) than eat a pineapple core.
Do you mean the zest, or boiled and candied?
I think it tastes better
I still don’t know how I’m going to stop seeing videos with eggs 🍳
If you wrap your potato in a soaking wet paper towel before putting it in the microwave, it will help the potato retain its shape and not be wrinkly and separated from the skin when done.
One of my friend's family bought me one of those Clever Cutters for Christmas (along with other things of course) and in my mind I was kinda "meh" 'cause I know most As Seen On TV stuff is crap. However, I found out that it works very well for my tailgating setup on my truck so I don't have to carry around a set of knives for cutting things, so I'll give it props for that :D
all hail the mighty lizard god zorbo
Go fix me a sandwich. Make sure you use the tools shown here
Bacon should be a God, it died for us
12-minutes rolling boil, perfect hard boiled egg every time. Easy to unwrap, no holes no cracks.
The pineapple twist is great for older people who have a hard time gripping a knife. It was also great for those in my family who have sensitive skin and couldn't cut up the pineapple manually without gloves.
Hi there, how are you doing today? I was on scrolling mode when I got piqued by your profile and couldn’t help saying hello 😊
Lesson of life...
Don't buy things on television just go to UA-cam (*´∇｀*)
This might help: Pineapple has a certain acid that isn’t good for you, therefore eating too much pineapple (around 2-3 fruits) will burn your tongue. Just something to think about
I love the taste of the pineapple but I can't eat it because my tongue burns even after only a slice =(
Good thing then that I don't like pineapple that much except for Hawaiian pizza (fight me), or virgin piña coladas.
That’s so annoying when I eat pineapple and try to eat something else, it hurts my tounge

Legend has it, if you mention Zorbo is the greatest lizard god that has ever existed, you will have a good video
Excellent.
Well... so far so good!
A sharp, properly used knife will always be faster than that last tool
Yeah I almost yelled at the screen how they showed it being used. Cutting with the very tip, tilted sideways, left hand finger sticking out.
The King of all Awesomeness. You know that this tool is oriented towards the average cook who's not particularly skilled with a knife; such as myself
i agree, but in 5 minutes on youtube you can vastly improve those knife skills. A year ago I couldn't handle a knife really at all.
+mohammad ali While I get it, for anyone who is considering the tool, they have to consider the amount of usage. If you are going to cook enough, then it's work putting in the time to advance your knife skills. If you are not going to be cooking much, then maybe this tool is right. The core usage looks like it would be for people who cook a couple of times a month or less. If you plan to cook more than that, it's worth getting good with your knife.
The King of all Awesomeness While I completely agree, it really is an excellent tool for people with cerebral palsy (like myself). I'm definitely getting it at some point because I can hold the vegetable with the hand affected by CP and use the other to cut.
I love my clever cutter... I do not use it all the time, but it is nice when you are short on space or need to chop something up fast.
I like that $6 pineapple twist product because you can remove the core from the skin and have a really cool cup for a nice summer drink.

Tip for peeling eggs.... crack the shells of the eggs right before putting them in the cold water bath and they shell will practically slide off.
I feel like the last one would be good for older people that might not be strong enough for knives or have arthritis and want to continue cooking
I LOVE THE CLEVER CUTTER! I have a bearded dragon and on average about 500 crickets in my house at a time and this little thing makes it soooo much easier to prepare food for all the little critter, 10/10 would recommend
Wait the Pineapple cutter is a new thing?? I've had that for over a decade, it's pretty standard.
Poking an egg on the bottom isn't about making it easier to peel. It's about letting sulfur gas release from the air pocket in the egg. It's supposed to prevent that "Boiled Egg" smell when boiling them. That's what I was told anyways.
I have a clever cutter. It's actually really helpful. Especially when cutting veggies for soup right into the pot
Wait a minute... was the guy who did the pineapple thing voice over the same guy who did the Domino's one topping pizza meme?
If not he sure sounds like he is...
Put your eggs in cold water and bring to a boil - they won't crack. I find peeling them while hot easier.
9:43 “cut the cheese” 😂😂 I’m so damn childish lol
When I bake a potato in the microwave I poke holes in it with a fork then get paper towels, about two enough to wrap the potatoes in , wrap it then put under faucet and wet squeeze excess water and put into microwave. Steams the peel keeping it nice and moist not dry out and cooks the middle with-it drying out also. If the paper towels get a little dry during cooking just dampen with water again.
This is UA-cam not English homework
which monster microwaves bacon,
you can do one of three things to make better bacon
1: fry it
2: cook it in the oven
3: grill it
but never microwave it, you kill greatness
Correct, apart from the second two. But yes, microwaving bacon should be punishable by flogging at least.
Microwaving bacon should be punishable by death
I always eat the pineapple core it's as tasty as the pineapple itself
Gert Kriel we always chew them like gum and spit the hard fibres out after
no the fuck we do not
The best way to make boiled eggs is to put the eggs in when the water is hot. This makes the shells come off much easier- Thanks Alton brown!
For baked potatoes I found that the best method is to wrap them in plastic wrap and then punch a few holes in them. They take about as long to cook but they come out perfect as though you cooked them in an oven.
The home made versions are a great addition to your info, thank you.
As an Italian, it made me cry when I saw you brake the spaghetti :'(

Perfect baked potato 👌
I know how do open an hard boiled egg here’s how{I crack the bottom and then I go all around the egg and peel both sides easy!
Nice work!!!perfect...
Careful guys the hacker has now breached our TVs
If you want to peel your hard boiled eggs easily without mangling the egg, just crack one end on the kitchen sink and peel under running water. Perfectly peeled eggs every time.
Instead of the cutter at the end, a santoku blade works really well. You just have to remember to keep your knives sharp and practice your knife skills.
How is Zorbo, the mighty lizard god that lives in the lake behind your house doing? XD
I haven't summoned him in awhile
Why is their no bacon on that bacon
what?
Gotta love Americans and their love for bacon without any actual meat
What
For anyone that’s confused this guy is asking why the bacon is mostly fat and no meat
It's American bacon, it looks awful to me, there's more fat on there than meat.
Ziploc makes bags that you can steam food in. It takes 7 minutes to fix a baked potato from raw to perfect. Plus you can have it already topped. The box of 10 is $2.50 at Wally World.
Hi there, how are you doing today? I was on scrolling mode when I got piqued by your profile and couldn’t help saying hello 😊
my mom has a tupperware egg piercer from 1968 that we've always used for hardboiling eggs. if you forget to use it, it really does make it harder to get the shells off.

Charged Electronic Concepts lol yea
The Egg picker is something almost every german household have , its simply just the eggs wont explode, works also for your breakfast soft boild egg
To make the eggs easier to peel take a plastic container and fill it half way with water and throw in the eggs and shake it for a minute or so, after that the egg should be easy to peel and it should peel nicely.
_Thanks Racheal Ray_
That pizza cutter was cringeworthy, if it is as sharp as it looks. It reaches way above the fingers and slides back and forth; sooner or later you're going to cut yourself bad. With a knife, not only would you cut much faster and more even slices you'd have the flat side of the blade touch your knuckles rather than the edge of the blade.
I've had the egg pinching thingy for almost 15 years, it's no new item. It's actually a very old item
You called the mircowave chef mike and jumped out of my chair in excitment becuase thats what we call ours. Little things like this are what makes me happy!
Why is there a low fart sound at 9:43 to 9:46
"cut the cheese" is another term for passing gas, aka farting. it was a joke
Noviian, cut the cheese = farting?
“I hate ‘using the grader’”
Is flat bacon something people like? Cuz I always looked forward to the crunchy bacon with the soft curves
One way of easily peeling a hard boiled egg I saw on UA-cam was to crack the shell a little bit, put the hard boiled egg into a Tupperware container with some water, seal the lid and shake. It’s supposed to take the shell off quite easily.
I have the chef basket, I've had it for years. But you're right, I didn't think it was all that. It didn't hold as much as I thought it would, and don't bother with using the handles for legs, they're not very stable. But, that spaghetti kind of got me started. Lol

Go to options -> speed -> 0.5, you should be able to understand that fairly easily then.
he captioned it himself.
I slowed it down to 75% speed, and it said "directly refer to zorbo, the mighty lizard god that lives in the lake behind my house." Also the captions confirmed it.
Take but if u use the pineapple cutter you get more pineapple
No u don't. It just looks like it but you get the exact same amount with either method
You can also get rings instead of chunks.
Ya my mom has the rings
You might get the same amount of pineapple, but it's easier and safer and quicker to use the pineapple cutter.
I've got one of the potato bags, they work well. You can't use ridiculously large potatoes in them. Normal size spuds are done in time specified.
Hi there, how are you doing today? I was on scrolling mode when I got piqued by your profile and couldn’t help saying hello 😊
I use the basket to cook chicken when I make home made noodle soup to make it easier to get the chicken out. I love how it works. I do not keep the handles out over the top of the pot, I put them down so they are just sticking out of the water then when taking out I use a wooden spoon to lift them so I can grab them
It's faster to cut vegetables with a knife
@2ManyLayersOfIrony it's faster to kill memes with a pewdiepie
2:05
Me: Um yea totally
Using a pizza slicer instead of a chef knife is just crazy. This tool is pretty neat because it saves you from having to scrape up your food once it's cut and can make it less likely to cut yourself.. however you can easily get a small cutting board, slice your veggies on that then scrape them into your bowl or whatever.
That chef basket is very good for polish pierogi

MR PINEAPPLE 36 sucks
4:18 We always pierced our eggs before boiling. But you don't need some fancy apparatus for this. Just take a needle and push it in. Takes up less space. We have one in the kitchen solely for this purpose.
I have hard boiled eggs for years and I have never needed to put a hole in them prior to cooking. The only times my eggs ever cracked during boiling was if I dropped them into the water instead of gently placing them in or if they were ice cold and went straight into boiling water. So I fail to see the need to puncture eggs.
However I will agree mostly with your boiling method. Here's how I do it. Cold eggs in the pot. Add cold water to about one inch above the eggs. No salt, vinegar, or anything at all in the water. Nothing but water and eggs. Put on to boil. The split second the water starts to boil, turn the heat off, leave the pot on the burner and cover. Wait 12 minutes. Not 13 minutes or 12 and a half, but 12 minutes exactly. Remove eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. I have been boiling eggs this way for years and very seldom do I get gray-green yolks. Also, to make peeling easier, leave the eggs in the ice bath until completely cold to the center and peel under running water. Your welcome.

I bought the pineapple tool. Although it wastes a lot, I really tried cutting it with a knife, it just gets a bit too much.
