Tips & Tricks

  1. Ensure not to microwave for too long, as this can cook the garlic.

FAQS

  1. Why does microwaving help peel garlic?

    Microwaving the garlic for a short time generates steam, which loosens the skin from the clove, making it easier to peel.

  2. Can I use this method for a large quantity of garlic?

    Yes, you can use this method for a large quantity of garlic. Just make sure the cloves are spread out in the bowl for even heating.

  3. What if I don't have a microwave?

    You can try soaking the garlic cloves in hot water for a few minutes. This can also help loosen the skin.

  4. How long can I store the peeled garlic?

    Peeled garlic should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and used within a week for best quality.

  5. Will this method work for old garlic?

    This method works best with fresh garlic. Older garlic might still benefit, but the skin may not loosen as easily.
