I just had to share this video that was shared by one of my readers. Seems like garlic is the theme of the week. Not sure if this works or not, but I will be trying it next time I make lacto-fermented garlic! Have you done it this way? Does it work?

Oh, I gotta try that! I thought it was going to be the smash-it-with-the-side-of-a-chef’s-knife trick but this is so much better!
Yeah – if you make the LF garlic, peeling a hundred+ little cloves of garlic was not fun. This method is much better. I can’t wait to see if it works. At the rate we are eating up this garlic, it won’t be long before I need to make more!
OH!!!! I’ll be trying this one for sure! Last time I made LF garlic, it peeled until my hands screamed to get enough for a quart jar.
HAHA! I feel your pain. The whole time I was sitting there peeling, I kept thinking, “there must be a better way!” Can’t wait to try it!
What?! Awesome! Definitely going to try this.
I know! I’m going to try it too. I hope it works as easy as it looks. Peeling all those garlic cloves for the LF garlic took forever!!
No way!!! Unbelievable!! So trying this tomorrow…. Thanks for the share!
Isn’t it great? I’m going to pick up more garlic at the store tomorrow and try it as well! If it works as well as it looks like it does, then I’m going to be a happy camper. Peeling all of those garlic cloves one at a time was not fun!
