where my garlic powder bois at

>>11347866
I use it for roasts and other slow cooked stuff, just saves a lot of time. Use powder for stuff too. Still use fresh when it really matters, like pesto or aglio e olio.

>>11347866
>too lazy to chop garlic and pretends to like the extra vinegar taste
Fuck off back to r/lifehacks you loser cunt shit for brains wanker

I don't. I use fresh.
Cunt.

>>11347924
OP here, I'm agreeing with you you dumb fuck, babish bitch.

>>11347866
>just saves a lot of time
you are lying

>>11347942
>backpeddaling this hard
Oh I'm laghing.

>>11347942
Oh yeah. Sorry mate, I read an extra >don’t
somewhere in your post. Can I make it up to you?
This homo:
>>11347947
Wasn’t me.

>>11347866
My boomer mom always used that shit and until I moved out I'd never tasted the sublime elevation fresh garlic can add to virtually any savory dish. Granulated garlic would be better than that trash. It's just for lazyass housewife "cooks" who see fresh garlic in a recipe but are too lazy to chop their own because they might not be able to reply to their latest facebook post within 2 minutes or might miss a 30 second segment from their favorite reality show featuring Slick Absripple.

>>11347974
Calm down.

>not buying the 8oz jar
Filthy casuals

It's not that bad autists

>>11347874
its no substitute for real garlic but anyone who doesnt have some garlic powder in their spice arsenal is a pretentious faggot

>>11348036
>using store bought spices
A spice garden isn't hard.

>>11347924
But I do like the extra vinegar , it's good for stir fry

>>11348039
Doesn't mean I feel like doing it. Store bought shit is fine, don't be such a tight ass.

>>11347866
I buy that shit in 1 kilo jars and put it in everything I make...been thinking about putting some in my tea...

>>11348039
depends on where you live

>>11348028
it is though. Powdered tastes better and powder is shit.

>>11348065
>>11348094
Very misinformed.

>>11348099
It's good enough for lazy cooking

>>11348124
If you don't do it right don't do it at all.

>>11347866
I'd like to agree, but at least it has to do with cooking. Most people here have no cooking experience besides reheating the extra cheeseburger they ordered from McDonald's/

>>11348129
I do it however I feel like doing it.

>>11347866
sheeet dawg
I like that, smeared with a spoon on a split in half sub roll, put on some mozzarella cheese, broil until browned cheese

>>11348129
You continue to be a faggot and I'll continue to do what I want

I've got ginger garlic paste for quick indian cooking.

>>11348140
>>11348149
No, it's not real cooking then.

>>11348039
Garlic powder has a different taste than fresh garlic. Also, it can be used in dry rubs and for making spice mixes. It's kinda like comparing paprika to fresh bell peppers.

>>11348175
>Oh no some incel on 4chan doesn't consider my cooking to be "real cooking" whatever will I do

>>11347866
>my dad has like 6 bottles of this shit but from Badia

Is this the adult form of that kid that screamed "I'm telling my mom!" when he got ignored and mocked like the sperg he was?

You need to teach your dad

>>11348240
>dad tries to cook potatoes

>when it's done its a mixture of burnt, oily, and raw potatoes
>literally dripping with oil
>wonders why no one wants to eat it

>>11348252
I have tried so many times but he refuses to listen. Whenever I try to step in and show him how to cook he gets all defensive and gets passive aggressive. Then he does shit just to spite me by using more minced garlic or drowning an entire steak in paprika.

The best part is whenever I cook something for him he refuses to eat it.

does your dad have dementia??

>>11348283
He's an alcoholic that has never really been a dad, or parent, for that matter. I guess the most blunt way I can put it is that I have no memories of my Dad, now, or during my childhood. He's always just sat in his room drinking while pushing his parental responsibilities onto my grandmother. She didn't want me either, so I've just been left to raise myself basically.

>>11348028
yes it is fuckhole

>>11347866

pampered chef garlic press


fave single purpose tool, and have tried other shitty varieties but this is the best one. Invest in this if you don't already have one.

>>11348339
No, it's not.

>>11348365
If you can't taste the difference maybe you should withhold your opinion.

>>11348369
You know there are dishes that call for both vinegar and garlic, and it goes fine in them, right?

>>11348378
>brings up vinegar in a minced garlic thread
you straight soured bro

>>11348397
>doesn't know minced garlic is kept in vinegar solution

>>11348414
Wrong. Find a new slant.

>>11348369
See

>>11348149

>>11347866
Eh I don't mind the stuff. I use it because garlic would just go bad before I used it all.

>>11348451
How fucking poor are you?

>>11348253
I make something similar but completely different. I put cut potatoes and onion in a pot with a half stick of butter, enough water to cover, salt and pepper. I simmer it for 30-45 minutes. Comes out delicious.

fresh is better in garlic-heavy dishes. The vast majority of dishes that only need a bit of garlic will work perfectly fine with jarred pre-minced stuff. Anyone who dissents is just mad no one else has to deal with stinky fingers

I have both this and fresh garlic. Also some powder.

u mad?

>>11347866
I used to hate my dad using this when he cooked. You start frying it and it just smells wrong, doesn't carry the same flavour

I use it when I'm just making a single portion of pan-fried stuff for a quick meal.

>>11348565
Not poor at all, I just don't like wasting food.

>>11348262
He is the apex of Boomerdom. And I thought my dad was bad.

>>11347866
Shit tastes like ass, it's weirdly sour and has an awful bitter aftertaste

At least get garlic paste if you're the kind of trog who can't suffer for fresh garlic

>>11348262
Next time he refuses ask him if it's because he's a faggot, with complete sincerity.

>>11347866
Is this some kind of Jewish trick?

I bought some kirkland minced garlic but it's too citric to taste the garlic properly what the fuck do I do with this shit

>>11348240
Hello I also cook entire packages of hamburger in one pan am I retarded? Please enlighten me.

>>11347866
Fuck you.

>his pan can't hold 1lb of ground beef
I'll bet it's a beat up Teflon too

>>11347866
this is the only garlic ive ever used in my entire life

>>11347866
Half the threads on this boards are discussions about
1) Fast food
2) Youtube celebrities
3) Fatties/alcohol/drug threads
4) Nothing, it's just an excuse to post frogs or wojaks
You have literally zero control over what is allowed or what belongs on this board anymore. The only people with that power are poopy scoopy jannies that don't give a fuck because they're literally doing it for free.

Does he like it?

>>11347866
i have literally this

>>11350385
Clear your cookies you dingdong.

>>11347866
Only Jack tier plebs use this shit. It doesn’t save you time when you are not retarded.

>>11348350
I don't like the hole clearer thing being separate, I much prefer it being on the back of the press so you can just flip it around to clean it out.

I have this one and it's fine, but if I ever lose that little pokey thing I'm fucked

I sometimes use this. I also use powdered and also cloves.
Whatever comes handy.

>>11347866
>amerifart.jpg
etc.

>>11347866
>>11348188
These

>>11347866
I unironically eat this by the spoonful

>>11348583
You don't really need to touch the garlic much to mince it. You touch the skin when you break the cloves off. If you smash it before you peel it, you can get the peel off without really touching the inside. You don't really need to touch it when you mince it and you can slide it off the cutting board with the knife.

>open fridge today to get some sauce for some leftovers
>this shit is in it

My roommate uses this shit a lot I think.

>>11348188
>paprika
Literal meme.
I'd argue it's the only thing more useless than minced garlic in the whole culinary world.

>>11351777
Smoked Hungarian paprika is the GOAT, sorry you're poor and have to buy McCormick.

>>11351777
Whats the alternative?

>>11347993
Get on my level, faggot.

Seriously though it’s not that bad.

>>11351799
Nothing. It has zero effect on the taste of your food.
For literally 99.9% of dishes, you would never even be able to tell if it had paprika or not. 100% if it's store bought.

Some retards use it to make their meat appear more brown than it really is, as though that charade actually helps.

>>11347866
I have some of it in my fridge, but I've been really disappointed in the lack of garlic flavor when I use it. It's almost flavorless.

>>11351777
>>11351840
Smoked paprika
>>11351799
Smoked paprika

>>11348583
I love garlic fingers

>>11352815
>>11351792
That's such a different thing though. It's pretty disingenuous to put them under the same umbrella.
And even with smoked paprika, you need to pour out handfuls of it to notice any flavor. It's more an ingredient in its own right than a traditional spice.

>>11347924
I like the oil, cunt-muscle

what if i keep it for emergencies, like i thought i still had fresh garlic but then i see im out

>>11347866
You're very sensitive. Do you want to talk about it?

>>11351827
This is the size my dad buys

>>11347866
lol there are anons here that are actually too lazy to put cloves into a mincer. Pic related is what kitchen Chads use.

>>11348193
>implying autists aren't better than you at anything they autism over

>>11353248
You're dumb and wrong.

>>11347974
Yeah, you can gimme a massage.

>>11353248
To be fair, it goes tasteless pretty quick. But fresh paprika tastes great.

>>11347866

Eat a dick OP. It has its uses.

>>11351777
Hardly. Hungarians either grind their own for immediate use or buy in bulk from markets where it was ground very recently and it has enormous flavor as different from the 2 yo shit in little jars on americant supermarket shelves as preground black peper is to fresh ground.

>>11348583
If you rub you’re fingers with a stainless steel spoon under running water it gets the smell off of you’re skin. The spoon is just a nice way to get under your nails.
