yes of course,
why wouldn't I?

Threw mine away after reading an opinion online. Managed fine without one so far.

>>15964325
No.

>>15964325
No, onions and garlic taste far better in powdered form in 99% of dishes and don't fuck up the texture like diced/minced. No revolting moments of biting into a garlic mince and the repulsive smell of fresh garlic overwhelms the flavor of the dish, while lending none to the other bites. Just a nice even flavor.

>>15964354
Goddamn do I hate retards that shill this shit. Congratulations, it just took you 15 minutes to do something that should take less than a couple seconds. Fucking retarded.

>>15964325
just use diced shallots lol

No I slice garlic paper thin with a razor blade. It dissolves in the pan with a little olive oil.

>>15964325
I prefer using one of these.

>>15964325
nah, i dont use enough garlic to justify the purchase.

Autism

A garlic press shouldn’t be used for most applications. The liquid that comes out when you press it easily turns bitter when cooking.

>>15964325
i like to bits of garlic so no.

>>15964325
One time when I was a child I scared off my mom's date with my autism she said she had no kids but I was too loud cause i was pretending I was in dbz so he left when slapped me a bunch and put my foreskin through one of these and told me my limp dick will never touch another woman's hands

She was right so far but when she gets blackout drunk, pretty often, i fuck her pussy

>>15964325
No, garlic presses are shit and graters are vastly superior.

No I have a knife.

This is my garlic press.

>>15964325
No, because I know how to fine slice with a knife and I'm not fucking useless.

i use this. shoot me.

>>15964325
yes, i actually use it often and like it better than a knife

>>15964325
I live in a strict no uni tasker household

I accidentally bought a garlic press because I was dude lmao'd and it was right next to the can openers in the store!! I didn't mean pick it up, 4channel I swear!!

>>15964387
I think they were trying to show off the knife more than demonstrate the most efficient way puree garlic

>>15964325
Yes. But i bought it for... bodypurposes

>>15964325
no because it sucks compared to this

>>15964712
I have that knife. It sucks. Can't cut through butter without going dull.

>>15964325
No, I don't use enough fresh garlic to justify having one, but if I did I would get one in a heartbeat

>>15965010
Yeah I gotta keep sharpening mine, but the side is good for smushing garlic. It was free though so I can't complain.

>>15964368
>moments of biting into a garlic mince

that's embarrassing

Behold, the chad press.

>>15964325
I do. it's got nubs on the back of the handle to knock the garlic out out of the holes, and the press plate is an insert. I never use it.

Not that hard and time consuming to press and mince garlic with a knife.

>>15964354
Hilariously overdone

>>15966208
Unless you follow >>15964354
It takes a few seconds with a cleaver and a rough/salted cutting board - slap, remove skin, rough chop, press and drag. No need to remove the germ if your garlic is reasonably fresh (or really ever, anyway, unless it's the only flavour in your dish).

>>15966248
it's somewhat acidic and lacks pungency. It's more like mashed pickled garlic.

>>15964368
Purée it.

>>15964354
>Cutting the garlic in half and then chopping it

>>15964325
I use the Marco technique. Or not. It's my choice really.

>>15964387
that webm barely lasts a minute lazy retard

>>15966192
neat, I think I'll get one of these
although a quick google search also comes up with this which looks better

>>15966300
So that it sits flat on the board, obviously
