Re: Garlic question this week, I saw a different kind of garlic press . One side was a flat surface with lots of holes. the other side was another flat surface with as many cylindrical pegs as holes, looking a little like a spaghetti fork. seems neat as the holes don't stay clogged with garlic pieces. price was a little below $5. has anyone tried one of these ? any reasons to avoid some models ?

#R:utastro:-63500:ucbcad:8000001:000:350 ucbcad!max Sep 21 03:14:00 1983 I've been using the type of press you describe for a few years. It avoids the waste of garlic characteristic of earlier presses, but not the scorn of purists dogmatic in their resistance to pressing garlic. I think it's fine, and can't detect any difference between garlic diced with a knife and put through the press. Max Hauser (UC Berkeley) .
