Mum shows how to cut perfectly even slices of cheese using a potato peeler


If you say that you’ve run a knife in a perfectly straight line through a block of cheese, then we say you’re a liar.

It always starts off so promisingly, until the cheese flexes its muscles and takes full control of its own fate leaving you as a simple bystander who will get what you’re given.

Graters have their place, but sometimes you just want a solid slab to pair with an overwhelmed cracker.

Thankfully, an ingenious mum has shared a far easier way to get the job done – and we can’t believe we’ve never thought of it before.

Posting the essential life tip in the Extreme Budget DIY & Life Hacks Facebook group, she wrote: “Probably my daftest moment ever however works an absolute treat.

She says there’s no need to buy a cheese slice

“Use a peeler to slice your block of cheese! Perfectly slim slices of cheese in a fraction of the time it takes me to use a knife.

“DISCLAIMER: I cannot be held legally responsible for any excess consumption of cheese that occurs as a result of trying this method out.”

The post included two photos, showing the peeler in action as it sliced through the cheese with ease, and another showing the perfect results.

Other members of the group loved the post, as it racked up more than 550 likes and 312 comments from others who thanked her for sharing the handy hack.

One replied: “This is so good! My knife always goes slanty and end up with big think bits lol.”

A second wrote: “Why have we not tried this before haha.”

Another commented: “Used this for years to slice cheese. I didn’t realise it WASN’T a thing.”

Others questioned why the mum wasn’t simply using a cheese slice, leaving her to reply: “Why would I buy an extra tool when this does exactly the same thing and it’s already in the drawer?”

Genius.
