The Miracle 1-Minute Garlic Peeling Trick - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 whole garlic
1 slice lemon

Preparation

Cut the bottom stem end off the head of garlic and separate the cloves.
Cut off the pointy tip ends of each clove and toss in a stainless or other metal pie pan.
Top with another pie pan of the same size, and hold them together. You can use stainless bowls as well but the pie pans are just easier to hold.
Shake the garlic for a little bit, then remove the top and pick out the peeled cloves. Occasionally there might be a stubborn one that needs a little more shaking, especially if it has a bruise so give it a look and see if it needs tossing in the garbage. Otherwise it just might like to shake itself longer.
Store the garlic in the refrigerator in a little container; you can immerse it in oil (kept in refrigerator) if you like but if you cook every day or so going through this garlic should not be a problem.
As for the lemon, rub it on your fingers and wash your hands with soap to get rid of that sticky stinky \"you've been messin' with garlic\" smell.
