Hi all, my first ever membership to a forum.
Discovered Marks U tube videos few months ago and have now made him my go to man...funny my recently converted to gardening husband will listen to Mark but pfffts my ideas so i drag Mark into the mix and it makes sense and gets done. Ive been successfully gardening for 50 odd years so think its quite funny.
I'll get on with it now.
I grew garlic 2years ago and got lots of small sweet bulbs. That were an absolute pain to peel and chop. Bought a few cheap gagets that promised to peel n crush in one move but found they either didn't work or were too much work. Discovered a brand called dreamfarm but $50 for a garlic crusher seemed, well , excessive.
Read heaps of reviews and as we are HUGE garlic eaters took the plunge.
BEST and i mean BEST garlic crusher ever used, weighted well, no excessive force necessary, scraps and ejects skins n cleans holes in 2 simple movements.
So if like Mark and I you grew Glen Small (glenlarge) garlic and you want to eat it without all the fiddle, i highly recommend Dreamfarm garject.

G'day and thanks for joining SSC! Also, as a first-time forum user, I personally appreciate you joining.

That Dreamfarm garlic press does look like a neat tool - I've never heard of it until now so thanks for sharing!

$50 for a garlic crusher does seem ridiculous. However, I’ve tried a lot if graters and crushers that underperformed, made a mess and wasted the garlic I was trying to crush. It’s nice to hear of one living up to the expectations of the consumer.
When I started my garden, I fenced off a bit of limestone bed rock with weeds and a scant bit of soil. When I began to water the area routinely some garlic began growing amongst a Lantana bush that was already there.
I’m not sure what kind it is, it comes back every year. I just water it and add some compost/ mulch and it grows. Most of the time I hang the bulbs to dry in my shed and bring into the kitchen when I need some.
Last year my sister took over the garden and decided to pickle the garlic bulbs. Definitely a different taste when adding them to chili or spaghetti.
