How to mince garlic.



Here's a quick and easy way to mince garlic. While there are better methods out there, this is what I do when I have to make good quick work out of the garlic I have.
 1. Smash the garlic. You can use the bottom of a jar, the side of a metallic knife, a spoon, etc...


You can now remove the skin easily.
 2. Rock your knife back and forth until all of the garlic is chopped coarsely.
3. Scrape all the garlic into a single pile and wipe your knife clean.
 4. Rock your knife back and forth in a direction that's perpendicular from how you moved it the first time.
5. Scrape the garlic into a neat pile. Don't forget to clean the garlic off your knife!

That's all there is to mincing your own garlic!
