I love this cooking hack!

Alexa’s timer feature is a go-to in my kitchen. I use it while cooking, baking—pretty much anything.

“Alexa, set a timer for the asparagus” (last night’s meal!) or “Alexa, set a cookie timer” (Saturday’s rainy day activity!).

Sometimes the recipe says something like “will be done in 20 minutes,” but in reality, the timer goes off and you just know it needs a little more time. 

Just say “Alexa, snooze” and you’ll get 5 more minutes on the timer—and you can repeat snooze as often as you need until dinner is on the table.
