Can you mince garlic with it?

Yes, easily - you can mince ginger too, if you start with small chunks - even if frozen.

I've had mine about 2 yrs and just recently threw it away, it would no longer shred the garlic. Maybe use it twice a wk, wasrather surprised that it didn't last longer. I always handwashed and then it hung on a magnetic knife block. For me personally, I won't purchase another.

This will actually work but you'll need to rehydrate the garlic in holy water prior to use .

No it sure can't cannot. You can grate, or make thick and thin slices. You'll need to get a mandolin if you want to do some quick dicing.

Zyliss Garlic slicer works as a mini mandoline. I must say slices the garlic very thin. Lay the garlic on its side. It is a heavy duty plastic. The blades are metal. Works fine.

There is a video review of this gizmo on You Tube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb4042k5Yrg&feature;=player_embedded). Jaden put in unpeeled garlic and gave it only a couple of twists. This broke up the garlic a bit but the peel still seemed to be fairly intact and came off cleanly. Then she finished mincing the garlic.

I do breaded fish, garlic bread, chicken strips.. basically anything you would put in the oven, you can do on this. (really nice in the summer when you don't want to heat up the house with the oven!)

I would think so. Haven't tried mincing except nuts and you would keep pulsing it until you get the texture you want. Love my bosch Universal Plus and the attachments. Just made an Ultimate chocolate chip cookie, oreo, brownie bars. Yum. What breeze with this machine.

I haven't tried it but I think it would work. The blades are very sharp so could dice garlic. I would cut clove in half or quarter if very large. Great tool.

Technically, No. It does not have the usual "non-stick" coating you may be familiar with. Although it is not technically "non-stick," I have had no problems with it in the several times I've used it. I do a lot of cooking that requires sautéed minced/chopped garlic and chopped onion. As long as you use a proper amount of olive or other cooking oil and don't have the heat up too high you should have no real problems. That and proper stirring will keep your clean up rather easy (minimal scouring with a Brillo or such). It is a fine Dutch Oven with one drawback--the handles get a bit too hot for bare fingers!! ;-) It's good, use it in good health.

Yes. I use it all the time that way. Does it cleanly extract all the garlic? No. But it quick and easy. Prob. 80% expelled. Definitely beats peeling and cutting for most stir frys. I end up using garlic more often now when cooking. Hope this helps.

You can, but I mix it with bread crumbs or something else when I fry something. You need to fry at a lower heat than normal or it will burn.

I have only used peeled cloves. The yield of minced garlic with this twist is far greater than any press I have ever used.

You can but the main ingredient is garlic. I wouldn't put it down any more than 2 oz/gal or your house could smell like a pizzaria.

Prior to mincing garlic, I have always taken the side of my chef's knife and flattened the clove (s) so there was an even surface to run the Zyliss herb cutter over and the results should be fine. The use of some sea salt helps to keep traction on the garlic within a working area which allows proper mincing of it without slipping and sliding. A vegetable brush will help clear the blades if a sharp tap doesn't get it done. :-)

I'm sorry, i've not attempted that recipe. I've used it sparingly but each time, it's been perfect. Good luck!

I have not tried. But, I have heard that you can with a product called Vegg. Amazon has it! Trish
