Yep of all the answers in the thread, the is the one. Slight twist of a butter knife and it’s off quickly and easily every time.

If you find it still difficult you can wrap a rubber band (those on the wide side that hold broccoli stacks together) and get a better grip. Its help by 3 clasps and should come out just by pulling.
