That thing makes great garlic butter. Also good for easy marinades.
>pro tip: it also works on ginger

Unless I'm using it wrong I have little luck with ginger. Graters and the like give me much better results.

I work on cars daily, dingaling
I mean, I still use it, it's just that the back portion of garlic is crammed in the edges and corners, effectively going nowhere.

Shut up wrenchlet.
Mine is a shitty old ceramic one so chances are I just need to buy a new one.

I got a nice $30 one that’s heavy af and smashes like five cloves at once.

>> No.15914664

It's also essential for frying garlic. Minced garlic will have smaler pieces that will burn almost instantly. Uniformity makes sure that it all gets cooked evenly, whether making a garlic pan sauce or a flavoured oil.

It's like 5% for me. Worth the convenience.

Unironically buy a better one. I had the same problem until I bought a new one. You can also scrape off the layer and stir it a bit and press again if you really want to use that last 5% of the clove.

True. Always use me fingers instead.

Bread, butter, garlic and whatever else you want on it such as sliced ham or turkey.

thank you

>> No.15915312

>>15915296
Bread and butter with some oregano and black spice is also good. But if you use pressed garlic you need to add something else such as cheese or ham or else the garlic will be too overwhelming.
