Why Men Would Love a Garlic Press

They say the kitchen belongs to the women, but more men are actually getting more active when it comes to cooking and working in the kitchen. In our family, men do most of the cooking. We love to have these kitchen battles and it didn’t make us less of a man. In fact, my wife is quite impressed that I can cook better than her.
Just like women, men have difficulties in the kitchen too. It’s definitely safe to say that the kitchen knows no gender. Men also get their hand burnt if they’re not careful, and men also get pressured when they have to please somebody with their dish.
Due to these, men can use every little help. I’m aware that some men like to show off, but when it comes to cooking, you’re judged based on how great the dish is, not on how hard you tried in cooking the dish.
My point is, if you have the kitchen gadgets to make cooking easier, then go ahead and use it. Take a garlic press for instance. For several years, I’ve never set my hands on a garlic press. I’ve always take the skin off by laying my knife on top of it and then smacking it hard with my hand. It’s effective – it makes me feel like a macho doing a karate chop and it peels the clove (which was the whole point of doing it). However, the process can take time and I have to admit it’s no fun doing it a couple of times in a row.
So, imagine how relieved I was when my wife bought a garlic press for herself. I know it was supposed to be for her own use, but I couldn’t let it pass. It was the most amazing tool I’ve ever tried. I can simply pop the clove inside the chamber, press the handles and out comes the garlic! What impressed me most of all is that I don’t have to even peel the cloves since the press works well with unpeeled garlic. I just scoop the skin that’s left inside the press and that’s it!
So if you adore cooking, I suggest that you make your life easier by buying a garlic press. Women are in love with it, and I think men will love it too! Using kitchen gadgets like this will not make you feel less macho – I guarantee it. In fact, being able to easily produce fresh, pressed garlic in seconds will make you feel like a pro.
