I saw this garlic peeling tip on Twitter today and it’s blown my garlic loving brain

[Quintella]

Has everyone else been peeling their garlic like this all this time? Am I the only one who's been fannying about spending aeons peeling each individual clove?

Now I just want to get home and do some garlicky experiments.

brilliant

Why was I not informed?

This is lifechanging!

That's a method I will be trying!!!!

Wow. I clicked on the link expecting to think "meh", but if that really works, its amazing.

Can someone try this immediately and report back?!

!!!!!!!!!

Wow! Thank you. I will certainly be trying that out

I harvested all my garlic yesterday and to be fair I'm gonna try that on tonight's dinner. That's the best I've ever seen.

Holy shit, that’s amazing. Must get some to try it out.

I feel like that wouldnt work if i tried it...

Nooooo!

It just hefted the whole clove out of the bulb, NEtoN10.

And I'd hauled my arse off the sofa specially!

Maybe my technique needs refinement. I did start with a whole bulb.

Mine is too wet, as it just took a slice out the middle and didn't crack open like that. i think you may have to score the outside for the first one...

I now stink of garlic though. Meh.

OK, I've re-watched the vid.

She's twisting the cloves sideways, having removed at least one to start the bulb.

Sorry, not getting up again to try...

Works on my drying supermarket garlic, less so on a much fresher bulb but what an amazing life hack!

It’s like the bloody pineapple all over again

What bloody pineapple?!
(Impressed with the garlic tip....)

Dunno, but sounds like what happens when I try to cut pineapple...

brilliant!

Ha ha ha - but no, this - www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/253126769?sc_cmp=ppcGHS+-+Grocery+-+NewPX+%7C+Shopping+GSC+%7C+All+ProductsNew:+F%26D:+Food+Cupboard:+Food+CupboardPRODUCT_GROUP253126769*&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIytD7jfXw4gIVa77tCh3OMw-TEAQYBCABEgJBK_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

i dont peel garlic, i throw the cloves and some oil in the nutribullet, peel and all.

I don't peel mine, just put them in the garlic press and it leaves the skin behind...

OMFG. This may change my life.

Also, why would you go for garlic purée? I looooove the scent of garlic clinging to my fingers. Handling freshly-peeled garlic is all part of the pleasure of cooking with it.

Jeez, that came out a bit pervy. Oops.

My mother learnt to zap them in a microwave for a bit- makes the skin come off but this is even better.
