Our Reader, Somi Chuhon, just shared this little trick with us! 
photo from “Tea For Kate“
“When brown sugar gets dry and hard to separate,
put it in a air tight jar or container and put a piece of bread inside.
I usually use the heel of the bread loaf since no one likes it.
The brown sugar should be loosened to its original state within 24 hours.
I just keep a piece of bread in the container all the time
and replace it once in a while
when the sugar starts to get hard again (about every few months).
I have used this for years and years!“
Thanks Somi for the Good Idea!

You can also keep a small piece of foil in with the brown sugar and this will prevent it from ever getting hard. :)
