A useful cooking trick: why cover butter with a glass for 5 minutes

Hard and cold bars make cooking more difficult and time-consuming. Fortunately, it is very easy to deal with this problem. And you don't have to put off making your favorite pastries. SSPDaily tells about it.

You just need to remember one very simple trick that few people know about. The glass method will take you only 5 minutes, and the result will pleasantly surprise you. Here are the step-by-step instructions on what to do:

1. Take a plate, put butter on it.
2. Pour hot water into a glass and leave it for 30 seconds. Then pour out the water and put the glass over the butter.
3. Leave it on for 5 minutes, remove it, and you can enjoy softened butter with a creamy texture.

You won't have to spend a single penny on this method, and you'll get the result in minutes and exactly what you expect.

There are several other simple ways to quickly soften butter to room temperature. You can use one of them. For example, you can use a grater and simply grate the frozen butter. Small pieces will soften much faster at room temperature.

Some experts recommend rolling the butter between two pieces of baking paper. This will also soften it faster. You can also use a microwave if you have one. But in this case, there is a good chance that the butter will melt instead of soften.
