From whipped drinks to unconventional flavour combinations, TikTok food hacks push the boundaries of traditional cooking, making it exciting and fun to try something new. They offer hacks, shortcuts and simplified versions of popular recipes, making them accessible to busy individuals and those who love a challenge. However, it can be hard to distinguish which hacks work, and which just waste your time. Using search data and TikTok views, the experts at Wren Kitchens have found out which food hacks will actually save you time in the kitchen. 1. Fruit roll ups with ice cream @sydwingold trying the ice cream in a fruit roll-up ? #fruitrollup #fruitrollupchallenge #icecreamfruitrollup ♬ Elevator Music - Bohoman Combining fruit roll-ups with ice cream is by far the most popular food hack right now. You can create the delicious dessert using two ingredients: fruit roll-ups and ice cream of your choice (vanilla, chocolate, etc) Method: 1. Start by unwrapping a fruit roll-up and lay it flat on a clean surface, such as a cutting board or countertop. 2. Take a scoop of your favourite ice cream and place it near the edge of the fruit roll-up. 3. Carefully roll the fruit roll-up around the ice cream, tucking in the sides as you go. 4. Once you have made all your ice cream rolls, you can enjoy them right away or place them in the freezer for a few minutes to firm up. 2. Pancake batter in ice cube tray @feelgoodfoodie These freezer pancake cubes are perfect for meal prep to have on busy mornings or for suhoor Ramadan mornings. Use any batter you like and just add a little extra cooking time depending on how thick they are. #ramadansuhoor #pancakecubes #freezerpancakes IB: @dliciouslyinspired ♬ original sound - Feel Good Foodie Your ice cube tray is the answer to a quick brunch fix: fluffy pancakes. Method: 1. Start by making your preferred pancake batter with a basic recipe that typically includes flour, eggs, milk and sugar. 2. Mix all the ingredients until you have a smooth batter. 3. Use an ice cube tray and spoon the batter into the individual compartments of the ice cube tray, filling each one about 2/3 full. 4. Let it freeze completely, which usually takes a few hours or overnight. 5. Once the batter is frozen solid, carefully remove the ice cube tray from the freezer. Gently push on the bottom of each compartment to pop out the pancake batter ice cubes. As it melts on the pan, you’ll have the perfect size to cook and enjoy! 3. Ketchup packet cut @heinz_ca Say goodbye to awkwardly squeezing out ketchup packets. ♬ heinz ketchup packet hack - Heinz Canada For easier access and more ketchup for your fries, this hack is genius. Tear the ketchup packet horizontally in its entirety, rather than ripping it open from the top. Once cut, grab both ends of the sachet and push them towards each other to make a little pouch to easily dip your fries into. Be careful not to squeeze the packet too hard or cut it too deep, as the contents will spill out. 4. Burger upside down Isn’t it frustrating when you eat a burger and the contents fall out with each bite you take? Eating a burger upside down prevents the condiments from falling out and maximises the taste. The top side of a burger bun is thicker than the bottom, so the bread absorbs more of the juice’s sauce and flavour. This can be especially useful if you have a burger with a lot of toppings or if the bun is particularly soft or slippery. 5. Jelly drink @williamsengg I’ve been getting a lot of questions about the jelly drink I made for my girlfriend so here’s my favorite version and all the tips and tricks for making it ✨ hope it helps #jellydrink #williamsengg #fyp #xyzbca ♬ the one that got away - el This viral drink is popular for those who want a quick jelly snack without waiting overnight for it to set. Method: 1. Grab a handful of your favourite flavour of jelly sweets and place them in an empty cup. 2. Add 3/4 cup of hot water to fully submerge the gummies and mix until the pieces of candy dissolve. 3. Let it chill in the fridge for five hours. 4. When the mixture is solid, pour 2 teaspoons of condensed milk and 1/3 cup of milk, over the solid jelly layer. 5. Use your straw to poke holes all over the jelly layer to break it up into small chunks and enjoy! 6. Pierce a hole in a lemon for easy juice @paulfosterchef Great Lemon juice hack #chef #chefhack #viral #lemon #lemonjuice #homecooking #cook #howtocookproperly ♬ QUIET DOWN 2 - Madison Malone This hack is impressing everyone who tries it. Roll your lemon on a cutting board and, using a skewer, toothpick, or pin, poke a hole in the non-stem end of the lemon. You now have an easy way to squeeze lemon juice out of a lemon. As you only poke a tiny hole in the lemon, you can preserve the lemon for a week in an airtight bag, without the risk of it drying out. 7. Spicy pickled garlic @lisanguyen Pickled garlic with sriracha, chili powder & thyme (credit: @lalaleluu) #pickledgarlic #foodie ♬ Aesthetic Girl - Yusei Pickled garlic can be used as a condiment or added to various dishes for an extra kick of flavour. Some people enjoy eating pickled garlic straight out of the jar, while others use it as a topping for salads, sandwiches or cheese platters. For this spicy hack, all you do is drain a jar of pickled garlic and add some sriracha and other seasonings, such as chilli flakes and thyme, and shake. Ensure you use pickled garlic and not raw garlic. Pickled garlic is usually stored in vinegar, not oil, and when compared to raw garlic, it has a milder and sweet taste.

Formula One chief executive Stefano Domenicali has refused to apologise for the farcical opening to this weekend’s Las Vegas Grand Prix. After months of hype leading up to the £500million race, opening practice was abandoned with just eight minutes on the clock on Thursday night. The second running was delayed by two-and-a-half hours, and then took place in front of vacant grandstands after furious fans were ejected to comply with local employment laws. Practice finished at 4am on Friday morning. But in a 650-word joint statement by Domenicali, and CEO of the Las Vegas race, Renee Wilm, the sport’s red-faced bosses stopped short of saying sorry. “We have all been to events, like concerts, games and even other Formula One races, that have been cancelled because of factors like weather or technical issues,” they said. “It happens, and we hope people will understand.” Fans who held a 200 US dollar (£160) general admission ticket for Thursday’s two practice sessions have been offered a voucher for the same amount to be redeemed on merchandise. But those in attendance on a three-day pass – the cheapest of which is 500 US dollars (£400) – will not receive any compensation. The statement continued: “We know this was disappointing. We hope our fans will understand that we had to balance many interests, including the safety and security of all participants and the fan experience over the whole race weekend. “So how will we address this tonight? “We have worked overnight to adjust our staffing plans across security, transportation and hospitality to ensure that we can function and serve fans with the best possible experience in the event of an extended race schedule. “We are excited about the racing today and thank our entire team and our fans for their support. We know this is going to be a great event. With that, let’s get back to racing.” Qualifying for Saturday’s 50-lap race will take place at midnight local time (8am GMT on Saturday).

Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes was criticised by Toto Wolff as being “a nasty piece of work” after the British driver qualified only 13th for the Miami Grand Prix. As Sergio Perez took a surprise pole position – with Charles Leclerc’s late crash resulting in a red flag to leave Max Verstappen ninth on the grid – Hamilton endured another sobering evening in his unruly machine. COMMENT: Where are Mercedes and Ferrari? Frankly, you don’t want to hear the answer Fernando Alonso joins Perez on the front row following another impressive display by the evergreen Spaniard, with Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz third. Kevin Magnussen qualified fourth for Haas ahead of Alpine’s Pierre Gasly and Hamilton’s team-mate George Russell. Leclerc, who broke his rear wing in the accident at Turn 7, qualified seventh. On Friday, Hamilton described the performance of his lacklustre Mercedes as “a kick in the guts”, and his mood will only have worsened after he was eliminated from Q2, an eye-watering 1.1 seconds off the pace, and two-tenths down on Russell. He returned to the pits shaking his head and took aim at Mercedes for leaving him with too much to do by not releasing him early enough for his final attempt in Q2. “We left that way too late, guys,” he said over the radio. Hamilton now trails team-mate Russell 4-1 in qualifying after the opening five rounds. “There is not a lot to say to Lewis because the car is simply not fast enough,” said Mercedes team principal Wolff. “Putting him in a situation on his out lap where the driver is not able to prepare his tyres makes it even worse. “We are not trying to make mistakes. We are trying to give the drivers the best position on the track, and we have in the past got it wrong many times, and also got it right many times. But if things go badly, they compound the situation. “I take no enjoyment from finishing sixth (with Russell) and it is the lack of comprehension of what is wrong that makes this car such a nasty piece of work. “The car is not a good car. There are problems everywhere, with the base performance of the car and the lack of understanding of the car. The performance is just really bad. It is not acceptable.” Hamilton, already 45 points behind championship leader Verstappen, started Saturday’s running on the backfoot following a near-miss with Haas driver Kevin Magnussen. The 38-year-old was on his first speedy lap of the afternoon when he was blocked by the Dane under braking at Turn 17. Hamilton was forced to take evasive action, brushing the barriers in the process. “Check the front wing”, said the Mercedes driver, who swiftly dived into the pits for repairs. “I just hit the wall.” Commenting on his lowly grid slot for Sunday’s 57-lap race, Hamilton said: “We knew it would be very hard and there was a 50:50 chance we could get into Q3 so we needed to be better with our timing. “But it’s done. I’ll try and get my head down tomorrow and see what I can do – 13th to God knows where.” Verstappen looked set to secure pole after dominating practice, but he made a mistake in his first run in Q3. Then, with less than two minutes remaining, Leclerc lost control of his Ferrari and thudded into the wall. The session was red-flagged and did not restart, leaving Verstappen, who leads Perez by just six points in the standings, in the midfield. “F*** sake,” said the Dutchman over the radio after he was unable to complete his final lap. For Perez, his pole comes a week after winning in Azerbaijan, and provides him with the chance to assume control of the world championship. “It has been a bad weekend,” said the Mexican, who had struggled to get up to speed in his Red Bull before qualifying. “But we made a small change and everything came alive. Tomorrow is an opportunity starting from pole and we will go out there and enjoy this amazing crowd.” Read More ‘They don’t like who wins’: Max Verstappen claims Miami boos are due to his success ‘I always feel unbeatable’: Max Verstappen sends chilling message to title rivals Max Verstappen ignores boos from crowd to storm to Miami Grand Prix win F1 highlights: How to watch Miami GP race online Lewis Hamilton would be taking gamble by joining Ferrari, says former rival Sergio Perez on pole for Miami Grand Prix after Charles Leclerc crash in qualifying
