Cooking spray is a great way to prevent your food from sticking to your pans or tins. But the magic of this handy kitchen tool doesn’t end there. Cooking spray is capable of doing many more things that will make your life easier. So let’s check them out.

Making Your Seasoning Stick Better

Adding some seasoning to your vegetables makes a world of difference. But considering that most veggies have a smooth texture, the seasoning will fall off more often than not during the cooking process. Spraying the vegetables with some cooking spray before seasoning will prevent this while keeping the taste intact.

Dealing With Sticky Substances During Cooking

Measuring honey or syrups can be a daunting task, but it turns into a piece of cake with cooking spray. Just spray your measuring cups or other utensils, and you’ll be able to pour out these sticky substances with ease.

No More Container Stains

Plastic containers are great for keeping food and sauces, but they also get stained easily. For example, cleaning a container after you kept a tomato sauce inside it can be a nightmare. You probably know where we are going with this next. Spray the container with cooking spray before you put food or sauce inside. The container won’t stain, and it will be a lot easier to clean it.

Grating Made Easier

Cooking spray is a great way to make your cheese grating routine fast and mess-free. Spray the grater with some cooking spray, and you’ll be surprised how cheese just falls off of it. The cleaning part will also be a lot easier.

Prep Perfection

Don’t be afraid to use the cooking spray when you are prepping food. For example, if you need to chop fruit or veggies, spraying your knife will prevent them from sticking to it. Also, if you are forming something with dough or minced meat, spraying your hands will help you get it done quickly.
