Most of the times when the glass jar lids are so hard to open in the kitchen, I have to call my husband to help me out in opening them. But now after watching this video where Rachel Ray gives these useful handy easy tips to open a glass jar, I can open jars even when my "stronger" half is not at home.

I had the same problem as
I had the same problem as you did. Now, after watching this video I manage to open them myself without any other help from the others, especially now when I'm attending a detox and I feel very weak.
I tried the “slam” trick
I tried the “slam” trick as Rachael mentioned but it didn’t worked on my new Ginger-Garlic Paste Jar. As usual, then I used the desi trick – took knife and made a hole on the top of jar and BINGO it opened.
Other “desi” trick that works very well is that you put the lid under warm or hot running water and then try to open it.
This is a great tip, Thanks
This is a great tip, Thanks for sharing. I generally put the tight lid jar under warm/hot running water for a minute, then it becomes easier to open them.
