Ever hastily salted a bubbling stew with Morton salt and accidentally poured in an avalanche of the white stuff? Then you may be pleased to know that there's a hack for solving that first-world problem. In fact, you may have been opening Morton salt containers wrong your entire life if you've simply been lifting the metal spout and cooking up a storm. There's actually an additional step that can turn that big container of salt into a shaker: removing the cardboard tag inside.
But you may not always have a cake stand handy. Or you may be trying your hand at cake decorating for the first time and you're not quite ready to invest in one. Or you may live in a small apartment with nowhere to store one! Fortunately, there is one item that is already in almost every household that can totally get the job done in a pinch: your microwave tray.
