It’s no secret that garlic is delicious. Not only does it add a unique flavor to your meal but delivers many health benefits. Some people even eat garlic raw to make sickness pass quicker.
But no matter how you use garlic, there is one thing you will have to do first. Peel away the papery skin.
While peeling may seem simple, the skin has a nasty habit of sticking to the garlic clove. Peeling garlic with your fingernails is slow and painful while squashing the clove with the flat of your knife only works 50% of the time.
Worse still, both of these methods leave you with a bad case of “garlic finger” brought on by the unavoidable sticky garlic juice. Regular soap won’t get rid of the smell. While rubbing your hands on stainless steel soap can help, the best way is to avoid garlic juice from coming into contact with your fingers altogether.
That’s where garlic peelers come in. Garlic peelers are an inexpensive tool that efficiently removes the skin from small to medium batches of garlic. While a garlic peeler won’t be able to peel enough garlic for a restaurant, they are more than suitable for at-home cooking.
