    Oh man, a great hack is to microwave your garlic for about 5 seconds and the peel comes right off.

      Take two bowls, toss the garlic cloves in, put the bowls together like clamshells and shake. Peels come right off.

      Never tried that, but I use the press and roll method. Simply press the garlic clove into a cutting board and roll it around a bit while pressing down on it. The peels mostly come off straightaway. I combination with my cheap garlic press, it’s been so nice dealing with garlic such that I use it more.

        You can also just use a cocktail shaker or a jar with a lid and shake them. Peels come off so easily and you just mostly sift through them to get the cloves.
