How To
How do you make a garlic press?
A garlic press is an essential tool for any home cook. You can quickly mince garlic or make a paste. It is great for crushing whole garlic cloves in a buttery spread, or garlic salt.
If you don't yet have a garlic presse, you may be wondering where to get one. Luckily, we've got some tips to help you get started.
First, get a large container. Place the bowl beneath the press, and then pour the crushed garlic in it. Now, adjust the pressure regulator valve until it reaches maximum.
Next, rotate the handle clockwise until it clicks. The top of the press should lift up and expose a flat surface. This will allow you slide the blade back-and-forth over the bowl. Continue turning the handle in a clockwise direction until the blades come to a close.
Finally, take out the pressed ginger and enjoy!
Here are some other ways to use this versatile tool:
- Add minced garlic to soups, sauces, salads, and dips (or even as a seasoning)
- The press can be used to crush whole garlic cloves and make buttery spread.
- Place whole garlic cloves in a pizza dough and crush them before baking
- Combine roasted garlic with mashed potatoes and creamy polenta
- Use the press to mash garlic into homemade pesto
- Puree garlic and make a smooth dressing
