It is always good to have club soda in your household, not just because you might suddenly find yourself craving a cocktail. It turns out there are various other unique ways to use club soda in the kitchen. Check them out.
Removing Stains
Let’s say you spilled some red wine on your favorite shirt. Simply soak the stain with club soda and then pat it with a paper towel. Repeat the process several times and watch the stain disappear. The dissolved gasses act as a surfactant, allowing you to “extract” the stain.
Making Fluffier Pancakes
Want your pancakes to reach a new level of fluffiness? Introduce some club soda to the batter or use it as a substitute for the liquid listed in the recipe. The results will be amazing.
Shucking Oysters Easily
Shucking oysters is never a fun or easy activity. Club soda won’t make it more fun, but it will make it easier. Soak the oysters in club soda and leave them to bathe for a bit. The gasses in club soda will help oysters open just a bit more, allowing you to shuck them more effortlessly.
Providing Minerals for Kitchen Herbs
You should water your plants with club soda every once in a while. The minerals in club soda will “feed” the plant, boosting its growth and making it look livelier.
