How to peel GARLIC for when you have a garlic party.

Ingredients

• 10 cloves Garlic (fresh, unpeeled)

Instructions

1. Gather Ingredients & Tools

   Collect the garlic cloves, a pot, a bowl, a lid or jar, and a flat side of a chef's knife.

   Time: PT1M

2. Method 1 – Crush and Peel

   Place a clove on the cutting board, lay the flat side of the knife over it and give a quick, firm press to crush it slightly. The skin will loosen; peel it off with your fingers.

   Time: PT2M

3. Method 2 – Shake in a Jar

   Put 6‑8 cloves into a jar, seal the lid tightly, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. Open the jar; most skins will have separated and can be removed easily.

   Time: PT1M

4. Method 3 – Hot‑Water Soak

   Fill the pot with enough water to cover the cloves and bring it to a boil (about 5 minutes). Pour the hot water over the unpeeled cloves placed in a bowl, cover, and let sit for 5‑10 minutes. The skins will slip off effortlessly.

   Time: PT7M

   Temperature: Near boiling

5. Store or Use Peeled Garlic

   Use the peeled cloves immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.

   Time: PT1M
