Do you love fresh garlic but hate peeling them? Sick of your hands smelling for days on end? I have two tips for you that I have used for years that surprisingly people really do not know about!

Easy Garlic Peeling

Separate one clove of garlic

Place broad knife over garlic

Smash garlic with both hands

Voila! The garlic shell falls right off!

No Smelly Hands Tip

I always get my hands wet before I handle garlic. It creates a sort-of barrier from the garlic juices permeating my skin. I then wash hands right after . . . It does not work 100% but it helps A LOT.

Happy Cooking!
