How to Peel the Garlic in Seconds?
Peeling the garlic is always a hassle for me.
It crumbles, it frayed and in the end I put it all over the kitchen counter.
But since this year, I have found a trick to shorten this chore. It was entrusted to me by a cook buddy.
The trick to peeling the garlic in 10 seconds flat is to hit the clove with a knife. It is very simple. Look :
How to do
1. Just press the blade of a large kitchen knife against the garlic clove.
2. Hit a blow hard enough (not too hard anyway, I don't want to be responsible for your severed knuckles ...).
Results
And there you go, you will see, as if by magic, the peel will come off by itself and in addition the broken bulb will give off more fragrance :-)
Two birds with one stone !
Details
Small clarification at the request of our reader Ingrid Arnoux: you have to press the clove of garlic with the side of the blade. If you use the sharp edge, the blade is not stable enough on the pod and every other time it slides to the side.
In any case, thank you Ingrid!
