How To Peel And Mince Garlic

This 1-minute tutorial will help you to become an expert in the kitchen when it comes to working with garlic the correct way.

Step 1: Remove Cloves to be Minced

Use your hands and remove any outer layers from the whole garlic bulb until you’re able to reach in and remove a few of the individual cloves.

Take the individual clove and just chop off the nub/root end. This will make peeling much easier.

The skin should be easy to peel off at this point. You can always take the knife to help lift the skin off as well.

Now we slice the clove into thin slices.

Rock the knife back and forth over the clove slices to start getting a rough chop

Continuing the chopping process, being sure to wipe off any pieces that stick to the knife.

You now have minced garlic that’s ready for any delicious recipe!
