What if you can not get a lid off of a soup bowl !?

お椀のふたがあかない時は!?

When you have Japanese soup, like miso soup, some soup bowls come with lids.Sometimes the lids of soup bowls are really difficult to remove.It's like it's locked! Even for Japanese people, these lids are really hard to remove.I will give you the key to removing the lid.
When you face this situation, remember this advice!
1. Press the rim of the bowl with your thumb and your index finger tightly.
2. Take hold the lid with your other hand and lift up it . Then, the lid usually cracks open .
Even if you can't get the lid off, press a bit harder with your fingers 
as you hold the lid and twist it slightly to get air into the bowl. It is effective.
3.After removing the lid, place the inner part of it facing up andput it on the right side of the bowl.

 

汁ものが出る場合、お椀に「ふた」が付いていることがあります。これがくっついて、鍵がかかったようになって、なかなか開けられない時があります。これは日本人でも慌てます。そんな時のコツを伝授にゃ。
1.片方の手の親指と人差し指でお椀の縁を押さえます。
2.もう片方の手の指で蓋を持ち上げると、パカッとあきます。なかなか明かない時はお椀の縁を挟んでいる指に少し力を入れます!蓋をすこしひねって、空気をいれるようにするのも有効です。
