Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Todco GR300 Roasted Garlic ExpressCustomer Review: Best present ever! Summary: 5 Stars
I got this as a present from my mother and father-in-law and it is terrific. I had a terra cotta garlic roaster but rarely used it because it took too long to wait for the oven to heat up and the bottom where the garlic and oil sat was shallow and bubbled over each time and when I used the reccomended amount of oil but if I put less oil in the garlic burned.
This is easy and a dream to use. I got it as a Mother's day present from my in-laws and I used it six times the first week. I continue to use this two to four times a week and the roasted garlic has come out perfect each time; I tried the roasted garlic dressing recipie in the back and it was excellent. The terra cotta color compliments our kitchen which has stainless appliances and dark granite counters; there is cord storage on the bottom of the appliance.
It does not take up a lot of counter space. It only takes a minute of preparation and a pre-timed 27 minute cycle to get great roasted Garlic.
Just a few easy steps(the first time make sure the terra cotta ring is clean and insert it in the spot in the bottom of the unit):
1) add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the roasting cup and sprinkle salt and pepper into the oil
2) prep the garlic by cutting of the top of the bulb and removing any loose skin; the cup fits one large bulb or two average sized bulbs
3) place the Garlic cut side down into the olive oil
4) close the unit and turn it on, when the unit is almost done the light will blink in approx 27 minutes, when the roasting cycle is finished the unit shuts of automatically so no burned garlic if you get distracted
5) use the plastic handle that stays cool to the touch to take the cup out of the hot appliance and turn it over onto a serving plate
6) enjoy the best tasting easiest roasted Garlic ever - serve hot I like to serve it with a fresh crusty bread
One caution: If you have a toddler like I do please find a spot to operate this that is far enough from curious hands because this appliance gets VERY HOT; I sit mine far back on the counter and keep a watchful eye on my toddler.
We use ours two - four times a week and it always delivers delicious roasted garlic with minimal effort; worth the money.
Description of Todco GR300 Roasted Garlic ExpressThe world's first electric garlic roaster! Instead of heating up your oven to roast garlic (which can take anywhere from one hour to two hours), roast it in here - it will be ready in just 27 minutes! Shaped just like a garlic bulb, this handy roaster plugs into your kitchen outlet for roasting on your countertop. The roaster includes a roasting cup; to use, first add olive oil to the roasting cup, season with salt and herbs then place up to three garlic bulbs (removed of their tops to expose the cloves) into the roasting cup, cut sides facing down. With the pan now in the roaster, close the cover and press the Start button. When the light goes out, wait a minute to cool then remove the roasting cup by its handle. Place the bulbs on a plate to cool then squeeze out the garlic from inside each clove. The garlic is now mellow, buttery and nutty - ready to add to mashed potatoes or to spread on crusty bread.
