Kitchen trick:

  • Take the whole garlic head, and crumble it by hand over a sealable container to separate the cloves into.
  • Put the lid on tightly, then shake the everloving shit out of it.
  • Open the container, and voila! The meat is separated from the paper.
  • Enjoy!

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

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?

I never tried this, but maybe cutting it up in a few pieces would help?
