Again, why peel? What on earth do you do with whole cloves? I crush
the garlic. Mainly, I squash them good and the paper comes right off
and it doesn't stick to my hands. If for some strange reason I want
to grate the garlic on the microplane - I just lightly tap it and
again... the paper comes off easily. Shaking in that jar took way too
long and I had to peel them anyway. Too much work for a couple cloves
of garlic, but I'd consider it if I needed to use an entire head of
individual raw cloves (otherwise, I'd just roast it and squeeze them
out).
