If the cutting board and chef's knife is already out, it's usually just quicker and easier to mince a clove of garlic with the knife. But other times, like tonight when the recipe called for 9 cloves of minced garlic, I turn to this gadget. It's a Rosle Garlic Press from Williams Sonoma. And let me tell you, this little guy can really press the garlic. The first time I used it, after struggling with an inferior brand for several years, I applied the usual amount of pressure and Woohoo! , the garlic went flying out and splattered all across the back splash. I soon learned that you don't need a lot of pressure to use this style. Just aim carefully and give it a gentle squeeze. When you're done, you can flip the screen up for easy cleaning or toss it in the dish washer. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than some brands, but it is quite possibly the last garlic press you will ever buy!
