Garlic Presses and Rasp Graters

The classic garlic press is one of the most common tools used to mince garlic. These gadgets are typically crafted of durable stainless steel and feature strong handles to help you crush small or large cloves. Simply place a peeled clove into the receptacle, then press the handles together to force it through the small holes. Be sure to use over a bowl or cutting board to catch the minced garlic. If you have difficulty peeling the skin off by hand, consider picking up a silicone garlic peeler along with your press.

Another way to quickly and easily mince garlic cloves is with a rasp grater. These handheld grating tools feature small, sharp holes that cut through the peeled clove to create finely chopped pieces. After running it through the dishwasher or giving it a thorough cleaning, you can also use this type of garlic grater to mince other ingredients. Create fine shreds of parmesan cheese, zest lemons or limes, or grate additional spices like cinnamon, ginger root and nutmeg with these tools. Add a set of herb shears to your kitchen, and you'll have everything needed to mix up refreshing sauces and dressings with garlic, lemon zest, cheese and fresh herbs.
