There’s no way this is real. I had an aunt recommend this and I felt like 60+% of the garlic was stuck in the skin in the press?? You had a different experience?
Just used this technique again, made me think back to this wonderful exchange. Looked at it carefully now. It’s basically lossless. Just have to empty the press after a few goes.
Kitchen trick:
Or just lightly press on the clove with the flat of a knife until it crushes slightly. Skin will come off easily after that.
While that works on a per clove basis, sometimes you need an entire head of garlic, and the shake method is the best and fastest.
I guess sometimes does technically cover everytime so you are technically correct

Yep. Super effective. 😶
Cooking youtubers are great for tips like these. Can confirm works really well.
Fun fact, it’s literally how garlic cloves are peeled at the industrial scale. 🤪
Huh, TIL.
New perspective on those big-ass buckets of raw, whole-clove garlic, eh? 🤓
If you just need pressed garlic, I was sceptical but learned that you can put them in a crusher without having to peel them first

I never tried this, but maybe cutting it up in a few pieces would help?
Yeah, I do this. Sure, you have some loss but it didn’t feel like that much. Might depend on the consistency of the skin and the clove itself perhaps
Yeah… Cook by “feeling”, that’ll go great.
You don’t “code” by chance? 🥲

I’ll surely notice the missing bits of your 320 kbps “basically lossless” garlic. Are you using wireless taste buds? /s
Are you high? 🤢
