All this can be easily avoided if you use one simple trick.

    The point of using a garlic press is to prevent your hands from smelling like garlic later. And by rubbing this method, your hands will smell up to the elbows. It’s easier to crush it in the device and then rinse it with a brush. Simply and easily. And my mother did this, and I do it, and my daughter and grandchildren will use the press.

    It’s strange) the garlic squeezer will do everything carefully and you won’t get your hands dirty) everything is thought out) but after this you won’t be able to wash yourself off) they say correctly: “the need for invention is cunning”)))

    Many cooks flatten a clove of garlic with a wide knife - place it flat on the garlic and tap it with their hand on top: the garlic is perfectly crushed, and then either cut it or crush it with a fork. The main thing is to first destroy and crush the dense tooth!
