Instructions

Step 1 – Separate your garlic cloves from the head, either by pulling each clove off individually, or crushing them apart with a firm press of the flat of your hand.

Step 2 – Peel your garlic cloves, by slicing off the root end of each clove, and then crushing each clove with the flat of your blade, just enough to release the garlic from its skin.

Step 3 – Crush each garlic clove using the flat of your blade again, hitting it firmly with your palm to easily break each clove apart.

Step 4 – Put your crushed garlic cloves together and start mincing them with your knife, moving the knife back and forth across the board to slice each clove apart into a uniform size.

Step 5 – Mince until broken down to the size your recipe requires and use immediately.
