How long does it take you Americans mongs to slice garlic? You have to skip that 15 seconds of work for this processed trash probably laced with chemicals and preservatives

America-policing must be a time-consuming burden for you.

I don't want to dirty up a good knife and cutting board when I can just use one of my million spoons. Just throw in some extra and it tastes identical

>>15804774
What are the arguments against minced garlic? Does it produce a poorer flavour?

>>15805629
The label is in English, so it’s bad.
If it were in one of those highschool-elective languages, it would be fine.

>>15805629
jarred minced garlic hardly even tastes like garlic, I'd use granulated or powdered before I'll use the jar stuff. If you really are a lazy piece of shit just pre-mince your own and keep it in the fridge. Something about the preservatives they add makes it taste like what would be left if you took every good flavor out of garlic and were left with water and cellulose. When I see this shit in people's fridges I know they are utter tastelets

>>15805629
It definitely tastes different. It's kind of vinegary/chemical tasting. Not too bad if you are gonna fry off whatever nasty juices it lives in, ultimately i just went back to fresh garlic. You can throw it in a food processor and freeze it if you absolutely need it prepped.

>>15804799

I'm not sure where to start here Anon

>>15804799
Not chemicals eurofag. Just chinese lead and maybe some mercury.

>>15805716
I cut the one end off and strip the garlic of its skin in about 2 seconds and then slice, oh no better get a fucking machine involved

Pls how fat are your hands, post your fucking hand Carlos de la Tyrone Gomez da third

That’s cool. Are you a housewife? Or a NEET?

Shrimp that already have the poop tube removed. Takes me about two minutes to clean just one.

Buttermilk marinade for fried chicken. Don't have to mess around with batter, egg wash, etc, just dredge it in seasoned flour and fry for perfectly coated and crispy fried chicken.

>>15804774
I don't know what spice world does to remove so much potency from garlic but they manage it. I'd recommend a decent powder or granulated garlic before them.

>>15804774
>Ingredients: GARLIC, WATER, CITRIC ACID.

Typical.

This shit sucks, the point of garlic is the specific taste, and this doesn't have it. You're far better off buying pre-peeled garlic cloves and mashing them than spooning this shite on your food.

Worst garlic ever.
I mean it smells/tastes like garlic, but food bloggers at Buzzfeed and HuffPo have kindly pointed out that it doesn’t; it actually tastes like nothing. But also tastes like vinegar and chemicals and ‘processing’ (which tastes like American cheese and memes and do-Americans-really).
It’s a secret though. So I’m gonna get in trouble for telling the truth.

>>15804792
I wasn't ready for such a truth-bomb this early in the morning. Absolutely BASED.

Like everything, it has its place.
Want to make anything with garlic that tastes like Chinese take out? Use this because that’s what they use.
Want to make garlic butter to spread on a breadstick or pizza crust like a local itialian joint? Use this because that’s what they use?
Want to make chicken and forty cloves? Use real garlic.
Want to make cheesy garlic bread, use granulated garlic.
Want to deglaze a pan after cooking steaks, and then add butter garlic and mushrooms to make a nice pan sauce, thin slice fresh garlic.
Everything has a place in the open minded kitchen.

>>15804774
It may save time, but it tastes like shit.

Here's what you do:
>take heads of garlic
>peel cloves
>put in a food processor
>add sea salt
>brrrrrrrrrrrrr
>store in a glass jar
>put in fridge
>voi la

Thia was helpful and makes a lot of sense. Thanks, bruh.

>>15804792
it's downright disturbing how often fb is also bp

>>15807311
This is genius!! Thank you op

>>15807322
>first bost

>>15807311
how long would you say this lasts for? also, doesnt it make the garlic too salty?

>>15807429
I always make enough to last me two weeks.

As for the salt, you need to have it in mind when using this paste in your food. You don't need a ton of salt, though, I'd say about 1 tea spoon per head of medium cloves. The salt helps to preserve the paste and it keeps the flavor fresh.

i think i will try this with several big single-clove garlics i have laying around, thanks for the tip

My gaping, bloodied asshole could use a good garlicking right now.

>>15806627
WHAT's FUCKING WRONG WITH CITRIC ACID YOU DUMBFUCK??????

>>15807553
It's supposed to be garlic, dude

>>15807557
Citric acid is just a preservative probably in small amounts given that is is listed last in the ingredient-listing.

>>15807563
It is a preservative but it still makes the garlic taste like vinegary dogshit

>>15804799

>>15807553
It's taste.

>>15807571
>>15807566
I shouldn't have sperged out like I did, before confirming what it was you were against citric acid for. I thought you were taking an "anti-chemical" stance. I am sorry. Please accept my first-daughter.

>>15807577
>"anti-chemical" stance
Wut?

>>15807566
You would know what that tastes like

>>15807577
>Please accept my first-daughter.
Is she a virgin?

>>15807587
Mostly in the anti-GMO and organic food circles there are many people out there who are against foods using "chemicals" (such as citric acid) in their food. It is stupid and sometimes I see this boogeyman in places where it isn't.

>>15807596
She comes pre-fucked by her Pa, as any good daughter should be.

>>15807600
But I thought citric acid was organic?

Damnit I was looking for actual time saver ideas and you had to post the worst one so it’s rightly all everyone is talking about

I wear gloves when I chop garlic,, I don't like my finger nails smelling like garlic for the next two days.

>>15805668
>>15805665
nobody believes you lmao. People make fun of you for being pretentious behind your back

>>15807600
Yeah a lime is just one big bad chemical

>>15807617
It is, but so is monosodium glutamate which also has a bad representation due to the scary chemical-sounding name.

>>15807566
you are pretending to taste a homeopathic level of a substance and nobody believes you, you chuuni fuck

>>15807668
believe in what? that these store-bought garlic jars taste bad? taste is not a matter of belief

>>15807672
So basically people itt are freaking out over nothing

>>15807688
Have you even bothered to read the replies?

>>15807685
Taste is always subjective. Personally to me it tastes like nothing but I'm not being a chud about it like you.

>>15807695
what?

>>15805629
garlic gets noticeably less intense as soon as you start processing it, so you have to freeze/dehydrate it to slow down that process. mince in a jar is the worst timeline for your meal to be in.

>>15804774
But it's so fucking bland.

>>15805569
Hard cope. There is no way in hell that pickled minced garbage tastes anything like raw garlic.

>>15804774
Just put the garlic cloves in your press unpeeled if you're dead set on saving time. The peel will stay inside the press if you only use <5 cloves, if you do want to use a lot, scrape it out every once in a couple of cloves or it gets clogged.

Grabbing a press and some cloves costs the same amount of time as taking that jar of shit from the fridge and grabbing a spoon.

>>15804774
Nothing beats the "the greatest thing since sliced bread"

>>15804774
I have that exact jar in my fridge because someone gave it to me and it fucking sucks. Convenient sure, but even if you use ten times as much as you think you need it still tastes like nothing, except for a weird slightly chemical taste.

>>15804774
just get a fucking garlic press if mincing it is too hard for your monkey brain

>>15804792
oh fuck, bros...

>>15804792
You ascend when you realize clam is their only currency and it's actually worthless in modernity

It honestly just doesn't taste like anything.

They put way too much citric acid in preminced garlic that I'd rather use the dried shit if I'm feeling lazy.
