Just buy pre-peeled garlic if you really don’t want to do it yourself. It’s better than jarlic.
>>22107297Agreed did this and blitzed it froze it korena style. I do say that the garlic is less potent than normal but I bought prediced garlic because they ran out of peeled, I think peeled would retain even more flavor if you process it quick.
>>22107297price ain't bad either
>>22107297Why would I buy a more expensive version that doesn't keep for as long as garlic in cloves? I'm happy people like you exist because it brings the average IQ down and makes me look better.
>>22107297lol retard
>>22107297>pre-peeled garlicThey tested some and 100% of them were contaminated with faecal matter.
>>22107349This stuff is okay but still not like fresh garlic. I'll use it if I want to save time and it's mostly fine but fresh is still better.Onion powder tastes TERRIBLE though. Even leftover chopped raw onion develops a weird flavor after a day or two that has made me think something was spoiled. I'm guessing it's whatever gives raw onion its pungency.
>>22107387Pretty much everything is contaminated with fecal matter unless it was just sterilized.
>>22107349garbage
>>22107297>don’t want to do it yourselfonly a weirdo is like this.
>>22107395>Onion powder tastes TERRIBLEnope.onion powder on a sandwich is delicious.you can even add it as well as fresh onion.it's got that distinct delicious flavor.
>>22107395every other hyperpalatable goyslop food has onion powder for seasoning, because it's delicious
>>22107349only good if you stim from feeling sand granduals on your tongue
>>22107297No
>>22107297tried this once and regretted it, most of the garlic went bad before I could use it, plus it still had a weird non-fresh taste
>>22107297shiso leaf prices are too damn high
>>22107297jarlic is unusable. it has no flavor whatsoever
>>22107730that's not true it tastes like slightly garlic flavored vinegar
>just create infinite plastic bloat that never breaks down for every single consumable good that exists as well as everything else toohumans deserve extinction
>>22107730>>22107744Yeah it's nasty and I regret buying it every time I do when being lazy
>>22107747>Oh no something is in packaging! Let's blame retail instead of China/India/every corporation. It's the people not the mega corps that are actually killing us!Kys immediately
>>22107752where exactly in my post am I blaming consumers and not the corporations who invented and proliferated plastic you massive fucking retard
>>22107297>waaah, this 2 second procedure is so harrdd!!Don't even bother with cooking, then.
>>22107754>humans deserve extinction>not corporations/China/IndiaHope this helps
>>22107766OR at least get a unitasker garlic peeler
literally nothing wrong with minced garlic out of a jar
>>22107784I didn't say it was wrong. I said it was disgusting.
>>22107387Hate to break it to you, but the overwhelming majority of stuff you eat has some level of fecal matter on it. What do you think they use to grow food? Animal manure. Shit from the intestines of slaughtered animals is going to end up on the meat. They wash it down but not everything gets washed off. That is why you thoroughly wash food or just cook it.
>>22107339>I am so smart that I couldn't comprehend a single sentence
>>22107297Just buy the jarred choped garlic. Literally the same with none of the work.
Fresh garlic is just not reasonable when I only go into town monthly for groceries in the mild seasons and every two months in the cold seasons. I just use powder. Fresh stuff like salad, garlic and all these groceries you have to buy so much of that takes too long to use and goes bad like that. So I dunno if any of you guys have any ideas but I like foods I can freeze and not waste like this. Thanks.
>>22107297>packing 5 loose leaves that'll spoil in 30 minutes in a giant hard plastic containerand that garlic too, it was already packaged, by GOD, and you thought you could do better?
>>22107931We have freezers ;)
>>22107917If you're far enough away from town that you're only going to town for groceries monthly you should be growing your own garlic. The bulb isn't the only part that's good, garlic stores a while, and you can pickle it as well.
>>22107955I don't grow things that don't keep well, are susceptible to disease, require high maintenance or I can purchase for far less when I go to a store.
Let's instead talk about what type of garlic I should use that can keep if garlic powder and jarred garlic according to some of you is so bad.
>>22107844The actual issue is that anyone buying that product cannot comprehend flavor or shelf life. Those two are often at odds with each other, but in the case of pre-peeled garlic it's conveniently the worst of both worlds so it's an easy decision to never buy it.
>>22107917The best compromise for your situation is probably having the powdered stuff and just buying a bulb of garlic when you go into town and using what you have over the course of a few weeks to a month. Just accepting that fresh garlic in dishes is for certain time periods.If you have a dehydrator you could maybe preserve it like mushrooms and rehydrate it when you do dishes. I've never tried but it would be an interesting experiment, and with your preferences and situation it sounds like a dehydrator could be a sensible purchase for you.
Bunch of fucking cooklet retards in this thread. Garlic is so easy to preserve. Just make up a big batch and you've got perfect garlic for 6 months anytime you want. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mk4hJu5Zy1Q
>>22107966>garlic powderI don't want to see your face around here ever again. In fact, don't even talk to me and get out of my sight.
>>22107966Certain finer things in life require time and effort. If you prize the convenience of something that "can keep" above quality, well then you'll just have to live with that trade-off. I know we live in the age of instant gratification, but the hard fact of the matter is that sometimes you just can't have your cake and eat it too.
>>22108038Gtfo cookletPowder is used more than you know.
>>22108050Sure. But not in lieu of where fresh garlic is called for. Which is the whole crux of this discussion.
>>22108046That's fine and all. Luckily enough it's not required much for good cooking but an occasional change from the norm.
>>22107349
>>22107917You can store garlic cloves in vinegar in the fridge and they stay good for over a month. They don't take on much vinegar flavor either, they still taste raw and fresh.
>>22107297i only use 1 or 2 cloves at a time when i cook so i don't mind having to peel some fresh garlic from my garden
>>22107917Garlic can last for months in the fridge.
pre-peeled goes bad faster. its fine if you are using a lot at once though
>>22107349this except garlic salt. goes on literally everything>>22107387because pre-peeled garlic is usually peeled by hand in Chinese prison camps.
>>22107998God damn it that greentext still lives rent free in our heads 15 years later. I hope tileanon is doing OK out there somewhere.
>>22108594>literallyYou’re an idiot.
>>221072971. Separate cloves from bulb2. Cut off hard base3. Use the flat of a knife to crush the cloves with the palm of your hand, this causes the casing to pop off the cloves.4. Easily remove casings5. Put cloves in food processorIt's that shrimple.
>>22108617>3. Use the flat of a knife to crush the cloves with the palm of your hand,>garlic is obliterated by my smashing motion>skin is now a massive pain to try and peel off each little chunk, half the time theres still bits left that i only discover once mincing
>>22108649Unironic skill issue. You are smashing too hard, retard. If you use the right amount of force then the clove will be half-smashed and the garlic skin peels off in one easy piece. This is like reading instructions for how to crack and egg and complaining that the egg gets totally smashed and everything goes everywhere. What you are describing is performative levels of incompetence.
>>22108649Except it doesn't, the skin will pop off the clove.Also, don't smash it with the force of a thousand suns, use just enough force to break the clove.
>>22107339This. And you lose a LOT of garlic potency when you peel it ahead of time. It's always worse to take short cuts.
>>22107297I used to think using fresh garlic was one of those things that took too much time so I would look for shortcuts but honestly there is no shortcut. Peeling your own garlic and mincing it or crushing it etc is the best and there is no substitute. Everything else tastes so much worse. You have to put so much more in for a worse result. The only exception is the outrageously priced squeeze tube stuff. That gets close.
>>22107297It spoils too quickly
>>22108649Based hulk
