  • Opening a bottle of peanut butter to find it runny is never fun. Luckily, there's an unexpected hack that uses science to thicken it, and it's super simple.

The article from Yahoo Lifestyle discusses an unexpected hack for thickening soup using a scientific method that involves adding a cornstarch slurry. The process entails mixing cornstarch with a cold liquid to create a slurry, which is then slowly added to the simmering soup. This method works due to the properties of cornstarch; when heated, the starch granules absorb liquid and swell, causing the soup to thicken. The article emphasizes the importance of using the right ratio of cornstarch to liquid to avoid lumps and achieve the desired consistency, and it also provides tips on how to incorporate this technique effectively into various soup recipes.
