This video includes a jaw-dropping hack that every pastry chef should be aware of.

"This video is about a sugar hack I learned from my culinary teacher!" the filmer, Miranda, told WooGlobe. "The hack can be employed when you don’t have a thermometer. You can test the stage of sugar for making meringue by soaking your hand in an ice bath, grabbing a small amount of the sugar, and then putting it back in the ice bath."

Miranda demonstrates that by following the aforementioned steps, one can feel what stage of sugar they are at!

00:04 She said only the badass chefs do this when you're trying to see what stage your sugar is at.

00:21 as it's boiling, put it straight back into here, and I'm gonna be able to tell if it's at the right
00:27 sugar stage that I want. Perfect.
