With Christmas coming up, let me give you a "heads up," on a really cook

cooking tool at Williams and Sonoma. I got one and liked it so well I
got one for my son, down in TX. It's a combination garlic crusher and
garlic slicer, for about $23, as I recall.

I use this little garlic mandoline for when I need more than 2
cloves of garlic sliced. It also slices/shreds other smaller
items. Cost me $4 bucks a couple years ago.

And I use the Zyliss garlic press, which jas alseted me for almost
8 years now. I've busted all other brands within 50 cloves, or 6
months - whichever came first.

I have one by SUSI, a Swiss company. It's all cast aluminum. It came
with a plastic cleaning tool to help clean the die of debris. I've had it
for too many years to remember. I haven't used it in ages. I slice and
dice garlic on my butcher top with a Santoku knife. I typically do five
or more cloves in about a minute with no cleanup required. I'm fairly
fast with a knife, but not up to Tyler Florence or Bobby Flay.
