Nothing's looser than a metrosexual, that's for sure. Downtown Liverpool sophisticates on the prowl.
Is this a quote I'm missing, or should I be offended? Hee!

The theories I've heard is that it breaks down the garlic too much. But ATK love them for mincing garlic in a uniform fashion. I haven't been able to get over my garlic press suspicion enough to actually acquire and use one (as previously mentioned, it takes a while for us to do stuff like that), but I am intrigued. Because chopping garlic, though I do it almost every day, gets to be a pain in the ass, man.

I think a good garlic press is great, but there are lots of shitty ones out there. Like the one I have that leave half the clove unpressed. I only use it when I'm lazy.

Oh, no, wait - I just noticed I've been saying looser rather than loser.
Hey: D'oh!

We use something like this to chop garlic if we don't feel like doing it by hand. It's a lot more convenient than a full-size food processor, with the two of us.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You probably have more of a freelance type job with them? No?
Works for me--I know not of the definitions. But I do earn an irregular amount from them each week.
The winds here are annoying. They knocked out power at the only store I know of nearby that sells Alpen, so I had to try a different store and three different types of cereal, none of which taste remotely right. Still howling out there.

I love my garlic press - I don't even have to peel the garlic! I think it's a Zyliss.
Mincing is one of those things that I am terrible at. It's either whole cloves, large slices, or the press for my garlic.

I think Zyliss is the ATK recommended press.

I use this chopper because I have terrible knife skills, and I can never get the garlic peices small enough.

I really enjoy chopping garlic (and veggies in general), and one of the reasons I bought us new kitchen knives for Christmas was to have much shrper knives and improve my technique.
