Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Trudeau Garlic Press, Black
Customer Review: Trudeau Garlic Press-- works very well!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently purchased this item with a Oxo Good Grips Garlic Peeler to perhaps speed up and ease the very frequent chore of prepping fesh garlic for cooking. I have used many garlic presses in the past and never felt that any of them lived up to their promise and always abandoned them for the sticky mess of the process using a kitchen knife and chopping board. Years pass and new friends arrive and LOTS of garlic is back on the menu. Amazingly, over the years, I didn't get any younger or more patient so I went searching for the possible modern device that is actually worthwhile. After reading all the reviews here on Amazon, I concluded that this was the product with the cost/function ratio that I was looking for so I ordered it along with a new type of silicone garlic peeler that resembles a plastic manicotti. Much to my delight, I found that both devices met or exceeded my hopes. I was preparing pasta with sauteed garlic and needed to prepare an entire bulb for the dish. In less than 5 min, I had the cloves all peeled and ready for the press with very little effort and mess. You break the cloves of the bulb, insert 3-4 into the "manicotti" and roll on the counter. Then you pour the contents into a bowl (keeps the paper from covering the counter) and easily seperate the garlic. The press works like all others-- put 2-3 large cloves into the device and squeeze the handles. With a full load of cloves, the handles can require a somewhat forceful squeeze but it is not impossible and reducing the number of bulbs being pressed at a time can make this easier. This is the only reason that I gave only 4 stars-- there will be some who are annoyed at the force it takes. It will also crush unpeeled cloves with some more pressure and a small waste of garlic which clings to the peels. When using it this way, the handles flip around and an attached cleaner presses the residue back out of the seive. The Oxo Peeler works so quickly and with such little mess that I prefer to peel the cloves first. Both tools clean up quickly with a hand wash.
