Garlic is one of the most potent ingredients for boosting flavor and enhancing the nutritional value of your meals. For the best flavor, nothing beats fresh garlic. Although pre-minced or pre-peeled garlic offers convenience, these fall short in both taste and nutritional content.
If removing the skin from garlic feels like a chore, try using a garlic roller. Simply put a clove into the roller, roll it back and forth about four times, and see how the skin effortlessly comes off. Check out this short video demonstration to see just how easy it is.
Embracing fresh garlic in your cooking can truly transform your dishes — sometimes, it's the small changes that make the biggest difference.
When shopping for a garlic peeler, be mindful that many of the inexpensive sets of two or three are made from thin silicone and don’t work well. Instead, invest in a single, slightly more expensive peeler — it's more likely to be made of thicker silicone, which grips the garlic better and makes peeling effortless — like the option I shared in the Amazon link for The Italian Market Original Since 1906.
