CHEFS have finally discovered an incredible technique that cooks broccoli so perfectly it slices like butter.
The broccoli foil trick was highlighted in a series of life hacks shared by TikToker The Gooch.
The household hack master (@the_gooch) shared a now-viral video that covered three minutes of life-changing tips and tricks.
About 30 seconds in, the video cut to a clip of a big stalk of broccoli boiling in a pan of shallow water.
The broccoli had foil crumbled at the tip sticking out which made it easier to pick up and remove after it was cooked through.
"We've been steaming broccoli wrong," the Gooch said.
He grabbed the bit of foil and placed the bunch of veggies on a paper towel before easily running a knife through the perfectly cooked broccoli.
"It slices like butter," he said excitedly.
This is just one of the many hacks that the TikToker shared in the clip.
Later on in the video, he showed one of the best ways to instantly make perfect mashed potatoes.

"We've been mashing potatoes wrong," he said while panning over his setup.
The Gooch had placed a wire cookie rack on top of a bowl before grabbing a whole boiled potato.
He took one half, placed it cut side down on the rack, and pressed it through until all of the insides crumbled below.
The two-second process left the potato filling ready for butter and cream without having to pick out any skin.
"Perfectly skinned mashed potatoes. You're welcome," the life hacker said.
Commenters were obsessed with all the tips and agreed that The Gooch was incredibly creative.
The tips come after people have finally realized the correct way to break up a Toblerone.
