Whole garlic? As in one whole clove undamaged?
We use garlic almost every day.I press it with the side of a big knife
and chop or mince it. Last night I did a stir fried pasta dish with 4
cloves. Sometimes I pop a clove into the cavity of a chicken, but I
press it with the knife to remove the skin first. The clove does not
have to be intact. I really can't remember the last time I needed whole
untarnished garlic cloves.
