How do I open a bottle of bubbly without putting someone s eye out?

0

A bottle of sparkling wine can have as much pressure inside it as a truck tire, so it s wise to be careful when opening bubbly. First, make sure the bottle is well-chilled, to about 45 degrees, by letting it rest in the refrigerator for an hour or a mixture of ice and cold water for 30 minutes. Remove the foil from around the cork and loosen the wire cage. Place a dish towel or cloth napkin over the cage and cork. Hold the towel-wrapped cork firmly in one hand while twisting the bottle to remove the cork. The cork should come out easily with a soft, satisfied sigh, not a loud pop.
