I don't have the OXO one from this video, but this is all you need to know

I love how he attempts to make peeling it by hand look difficult. Smash it once and then fumble around like the black and white part of an infomercial instead of just pulling the perfectly peeled clove out.

For me it's the major objection to stinky garlic fingers.

You're cooking food. You're going to get your hands dirty. You're right next to a sink.

Figure it out yourself.

Definitely, when I know I'm going to be chopping a couple cloves, I'm always smashing it with the side of my knife, and 90% of the time it takes seconds and gets the process started.

Peeler works great when I'm at the 6+ cloves mark, or need whole peeled cloves for something.

I'm the masochist that likes to take out the germ in the middle of the clove when making toum so I tend to just put a bunch of cloves between two bowls and shake the poo poo out of them instead of smashing with a knife, works pretty well.

Is that really necessary if the garlic is fresh and the germ isn't green?

Just give me all the 3ggs_n_b4con you have.

Wait...wait.

I worry what you just heard was...
"Give me a lot of b4con_n_3ggs."

What I said was...
"Give me all the 3ggs_n_b4con you have"

...Do you understand?
I saw all this toum talk, I just call it Garlic paste which is probably a cultural slander of some sort but I'll deal with the consequences. I've seen a few videos on making it and I know the recipe is fairly simple but can someone post their recipe and process? I'd love to make this myself. I like the kind that tastes like I chopped up the God of Garlic himself (Which my wife does not, she prefers a little less garlic and a little more lemon, but... gently caress that)

You'll never get the flavor of fresh garlic from a jar, regardless of how much you use.

Jar garlic is loving gross. Also usually loaded with sugar.

If you think jar minced garlic tastes even remotely like the real thing even in large amounts, then try some side by side with fresh garlic and see if you can tell the difference.

If no, then that sucks you must have some weird allium resistance because otherwise it's not remotely comparable.

I use the jarred stuff because I'm lazy.

And because that's all my dad ever used when I was young so when I got started cooking on my own I just did that as default. I bought fresh garlic for the first time this year and it was good stuff. I need to get more of that when I'm not so lazy.

Yeah just move their cart right the gently caress outta the way, gently caress em'. They never say anything, and when they do they go "SHES STEALING MY CART SHES STEALING MY CAR" and then my wife and I laugh and everyone side-eyes the dude like he's crazy. Happened only once, but get the gently caress outta the way!

The oven wasn't working at my Costco today, so churros, chicken bakes, and pizza were not available. Those poor food court employees probably got bitched at constantly, but at least their workload was probably very light for once.
