Peeled garlic and garlic paste. Yay or nay?

Every time I go to the supermarket, I keep wondering if buying ready peeled garlic and/or garlic paste is worth it.

Just buy one of these 2-in-1 garlic peeler/masturbation sleeves.

bought garlic paste from a denner to add in my pasta dishes and it had this really weird tin flavor ( was in a glass jar)

>> No.13845873

>>13844218
Peeled garlic is useful for recipes that ask for large amounts. I don't usually go for the paste or jarred, minced stuff just because it has a weird flavor, in my opinion. But other than convenience...eh...I'd rather have a nice couple bulbs.

Fresh is best

>> No.13846096

there's no reason to get anything other than fresh garlic and garlic powder

garlic powder can fortify a sauce and is good as a subsitute in a pinch

fresh garlic takes like a couple of minutes to peel and chop

you lose so much flavor otherwise

>> No.13846106

If you value your time use paste.

>> No.13847013

>>13844218
if you cook garlic it loses its properties, its best freshly crushed and raw added at the end to a dish. Otherwise you break down all the Anti-depressant chemicals in it and get no benefit other than flavor

Pastes and chopped bottled garlic are just shit. It loses tons of flavour and what’s left over is ruined by the preserving agents. There’s no need to freak out about it anyway - just get one of pic related. Preferably a heavy duty French one. Just put the clove in, skin and all, and it’ll do the rest. Just presses out the garlic and leaves everything else behind you can just pick out with either the little tool that comes with it or a small paring knife. If you’re worried about any residual smell, just rub half a lemon and its juice over your fingers. Job done. Easy as fuck.

I legitimately think smashing garlic with a broad knife against your cutting board makes better paste, and is WAY easier to clean up than the Garlic Crusher Tool Thing method. Also, you can add salt to the cutting board while you're using the knife, which helps pulverize it further (and adds flavor, and makes the mixture homogenize better so you can lift it off your board)

>> No.13847257

>>13847207
Then you aren’t using the crusher right. As I said: get a heavy duty French one. There is just no logical reason to make crushing garlic such a protracted, faggy waste of time. This is, bar none, still the fastest and most efficient way to do it.

Unless you're cutting the garlic into specific shapes just fucking cut it you pussy, it takes like thirty seconds longer to just mezzaluna the shit out of a few cloves and it saves you the hassle of cleaning the leftovers out of those little shits.

Stop being stupid. This device has been around in its current iteration for over a hundred years because it really does fucking work. As for the lemon, zomg not a whole half a lemon! Idiot. If you’re so tight you can’t afford to slice half a fucking lemon and leave it to the side (and that’s in case you even want to use one which only depends on how much is a faggot you are that cares about residual garlic smell on your fingers to begin with) then literally nothing you ‘cook’ is worth anything anyway. Fucking larping infant.

Nope. The crusher is still the fastest and most efficient method.

Woah bro, i didn't know you were in a starred restaurant processing four hundred bulbs of garlic every hour.
I'd take an extra minute of chopping instead of having another mono use tool cluttering my drawspace and being a hassle to clean.
