Customer Reviews of Oxo Good Grips Garlic Peeler
Customer Rating: Summary: Works as advertised, but there is no perfect tool for this Comment: I will confess that I didn't buy this at Amazon, but I've had one for a few years and use about every time I need Garlic. It works simply and easily, just put the cloves in and roll around without applying too much pressure. The cloves come out and the peels stay in. If you only have to do a few cloves it works great. Run some water through the cylinder when you're done to rinse out the peels. If you need to do more, you'll end up with a lot of peels in the cylinder and it will not do a great job peeling the later cloves. If you rinse out the cylinder, then it's wet and will not do a good job of peeling the later cloves. I've had to rinse out the cylinder and shake the unit to get every bit of water out before using it to peel more cloves. Fortunately, the unit is silicone and water doesn't stick to it very well. Someone commented on having to trim the ends of the garlic. I always trim the top part of the clove and never use it it my cooking anyway. I don't find I have to trim it before using this tool and will usually trim the top off after peeling. All this being said, I'm not sure there is a perfect tool for doing this. I've used the competitors and they work about as well and are probably harder to dry after rinsing out. Customer Rating: Summary: It actually works Comment: I was skeptical when I ordered this for my wife. However, it actually does work. If you're doing more than whole garlic bulbs worth of cloves, though, it'll probably need to be cleaned in between. It also tends to damage some of the cloves. We did a whole bunch in advance and maybe 20% had to be used right away (we shoved them in some olive oil). Definitely saves a lot of frustration, though, surprisingly enough. Customer Rating: Summary: No more owies!!! Comment: I love cooking with garlic. I hate peeling garlic. I always end up poking myself under my fingernails - which really hurts - and my hands reek forever. This is one of the simplest gadgets ever! Stick in a few cloves, roll the tube using a little pressure (you can't just send it flying like a matchbox car), and voila - fresh peeled garlic without hurting myself. Customer Rating: Summary: Exactly as described Comment: I was skeptical and thought this might be one of those silly kitchen gadgets that just don't work.... but it does work! Gets the peel off the garlic with one or two rolls. Cleaning is relatively easy (run water through it, possibly you might need to stick a finger inside). Customer Rating: Summary: amazing Comment: it was troublesome to start with but once you get the hang of it,it eases the chore of peeling.to get the best out of this peeler: 1.make sure both peeler n garlic are dry. 2. insert same size garlics n only 2 at a time. 3. don't press too hard or u'll end up squeezing the juice out n wet the peeler. 4. found out garlics left out of fridge for a week peel easier More Reviews Use the OXO Good Grips garlic peeler to cut your cooking time in half! Choosing Appliance -> Mixer Pretty much the same thoughts as the food processor. High quality mixers are great for making bread or other tough jobs. Every kitchen should have one. Be sure that any mixer has all three attachments: paddle, dough hook, and whip. Also, find a spot on the counter where it can be easily accessed at a moment's notice. Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers By law manufacturers must disclose the energy efficiency of their appliances, rated A to G. These are usually displayed prominently in showrooms. The better the rating, the more energy efficient the appliance is - good for both the environment and your pocket.
