      The peach hack works if they're fairly ripe. I use it to peel them when making jam. Make a cross on the bottom of the peach, boil for 1 minute then put in ice water for like 30 seconds and immediately peel. Works a charm for us.

      My mom taught me an easier way how to peel garlics. Idk if you have already included this in your previous kitchen hack (the last one I watched was part 3, looks like I'm going to have a barryton tonight). The hack is simple. You need to soak your garlics in a basin/bowl of water for at least half an hour. I advise you to peel off the outer skin before soaking it, if you leave it the inside of the garlic is still dry despite it's wet on the outside. Once you already soaked them for a while, from the bottom of the garlic, you can easily peel off the skin like peeling off a banana. I hope you could give this kitchen hack a try since it helped with this mundane task

      Phankitty Wouldn't pluots be considered "crossbred" then? They're plums and apricots bred together!
      Also, from a technical standpoint, all citrus fruits are derived from the original, ancestral citrus fruits: citron, pomelo, mandarin, papedas, and kumquats. Lemons and limes (for example) are hybrids of multiple of these, versus the tangerine which is derived from only one (a subset of mandarins). The orange is also a hybrid, derived from crossbreeding pomelos and mandarins to be in its modern form. We've been hybridizing fruits, and other plants, for a very long time with citrus plants being a very well documented category!

    I do the tomato hack one in the saucepan of boiling water for a minute or so then add it to cold water it's so easy to peel off

    You should try one of the vegetable choppers with the pull handle mechanism for your kitchen gadget videos. I am disabled and thinking of getting one and I think it could help a lot of other people too!

    "Let's make Cloé crack an egg. She would probably make a mess." She did it perfectly. Can we get an applause for her!!!!

    For the tomatoes-in school(cooking class) our teacher taught us that if you make the cross at the bottom you then cover the tomato with boiling water and the dunk them in ice cold water. Like what you did with the peaches

    When I worked in a kitchen we used a baking rack like that to dice eggs for salad.

    When he tried blowing the egg out of the shell it does work. I have always done it that way.
