Just heat up the lid a little bit.(if the lid is metal)

You can use hot water, although I have found rolling the lid on my electric stove for 10-20 seconds works better because then it's not wet after.

I'm not falling for the ol' spicy pickle lid again

[-] fastandcurious@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

I wonder if they actually use the same trick to actually put the lid on as-well to create as-tight of a seal as possible

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

I assume all parts are heated first because that's how you ensure it's sterile. It also serves to make a slight vacuum once cooled which will keep everything sealed.

Slide the tip of a dull knife under the side of the lid, then apply a little leverage so air can get in. Even easier, and wastes no power

And also ruins the seal permanently so that they can’t be resealed well

If you keep the pickles in the fridge and eat then within a week or two it doesn't matter
