smashing garlic with the flat of a chef knife and then mincing it by keeping the non dominant hand on the spine of the blade while raising the handle up and down with the hand holding the thing to get the mincing motion going is probably the easiest thing ever to do with a chef knife

it's not even something that requires practice (unless you're trying to go super fast)

The Enteroctopus dofleini, also known as the giant Pacific octopus (GPO) or North Pacific giant octopus, is a large marine cephalopod belonging to the phylum Mollusca and is tripping balls.
To get garlic or onion smells off your hand keep some coffee grounds around. After slicing vigorously rub the grounds between your fingers. Really get it in there.

So... whacking the cutting board as hard and fast as you can, with a cleaver (like the swedish chef muppet), sending vegetables flying all over the place, is the incorrect way to prepare vegetables?

i just use the natural knives god gave me when im preparing food; my teeth

chewing the vegetables and spitting them out into the pan is probably the easiest way to do it after all

This.. and screw the people that say they are allergic to it so the entire meal is ruined because you couldn't use any garlic.

My wife is allergic or something :(. Whenever she eats garlic she starts burping and gets a really horrible stomachache. It sucks because I love garlic.

Alternatively, after you squeeze half a lemon for its juice to add to your garlicky concoction, rub the abused lemon remnants all over your hands and fingers.

Is all garlic made equal? I usually get a sleeve of three for like a $1.50, but is there some expensive exotic versions that a plebeian like me could never hope to try? Because its a "if you have to ask you can't afford it" type deal. I pretty sure I saw at least two types of garlic at the local grocery store.

I have a friend who's convinced garlic is the cure for all sickness, preventing cancer, healthy skin, etc etc. Even keeping mosquitoes away. As such he consumes massive amounts of garlic and when he sweats or hasn't showered, the smell. The smell is like nothing I've ever smelled on a person. Beyond description.

He does usually but if we're camping it's hard to deal with. I camp regularly with this guy too and have for a long time, so it's a running joke now. He don't care.

I have a Korean friend who has the smell of garlic on him every time I see him and I've known him for 25 years. I figure I must smell like hamburger grease and cheese to him.

My wife claims that garlic keeps her awake - not because of indigestion or whatever but that it's literally a stimulant. I just use as much as I feel like using anyway and she keeps on saying it lol married life.
