how fuckin thin I gotta slice this shit so that it melts in the pan? it usually just burns
>>22226999It will never "melt" unless you simmer it in stock or water or something that isn't oil.
>>22227003What if it was sliced thinner than the width of its atoms? Would it not lose its structure and essentially melt?
>>22227005Nope. It would just burn much faster. Imagine frying a hair, a really wide hair.
>>22226999Roast the garlic if you want it to melt into what ever you are cooking and stop trying to learn to cook from movies.
>>22227005But you can't slice it that thin.
>>22226999checkedTry reducing the heat of the pan if you don't want your garlic to burn
Garlic clove slices don't liquify, but the acid gets infused into the oil. Pileggi and Scorsese were trying to tell a good, entertaining story OP.
>>22227005If you sliced it thinner than the width of its atoms, you'd have triggered nuclear fission and been annihilated in a massive explosion. This is not a cooking technique.
>>22227101I do that all the time and I'm perfectly fine. Sounds like you just need to sharpen your knives.
>>22226999Thinner.
>>22227101>you'd have triggered nuclear fission and been annihilated in a massive explosionso the garlic would have melted, yes?
>>22227117Vaporized, unfortunately.
>>22226999Cutting garlic that thin will make it burn not melt
>>22226999>believing shitalians
>>22227101Would it really explode or would you need a critical mass of garlic atoms?
>>22226999I actually am garlic
>>22226999Just buy puree
>>22227639breaking the nuclei of the atoms that make garlic with a sub-atomic razor would result in a release of radiation similar to a small scale demon core.The garlic would flash everyone in the room with a bright blue light and bombard them with ionizing radiation.By the time he got halfway through a single clove, it would be paulie and the boys melting, not the garlic.You'd also end up with a bunch of lithium.
>>22227662Surely, the cell bars, grounded in cement, would act as a sort of Farraday cage, no? At least the rest of the inmates could be spared.
>>22227090>he doesn't know>>22227101Filtered.
>>22227662No, wouldn't it be helium and oxygen, going by nuclear stability?
>>22226999Whatever you do, dont put too many onions in the sauce
the heat of the garlic melts the pan
>>22227687In this scenario, Paulie's sub-atomic razor technique cleanly splits the Carbon-12 into 2 Lithium-6 atoms.The ionizing radiation comes from splitting the oxygen into beryllium-8
>>22227101>you'd have triggered nuclear fissionthat's your mistake right there.if you want to melt garlic, you have to use fusion.
liquefying the garlic does nothing but waste time, which makes sense when you're in prisonread the book, it's better than the movie
>>22227116
>>22227721OHHH IM FUCKIN SPLITTIN ATOMS OVAH HERE
>>22226999pretty sure he said it melts in the sauce not in the panregardless use a microplane
>>22227895Slicing it thin is never going to make it liquify, but if you cook garlic at a low temp for a long time it'll break down enough to be turned into a smooth paste that could be blended into the sauce
>>22227698>>22227776underrated
>>22226999Paulie had this technique but you don't.
>>22226999grate it and lightly heat it in oilbasically transfuse it
>>22227101Believing the science jew.
