What is a "garlic press"?
A garlic press is a handheld kitchen tool used specifically for crushing and mincing garlic cloves. It typically consists of two hinged handles with a chamber in between, fitted with a textured surface. To use a garlic press, you place a peeled garlic clove inside the chamber, then squeeze the handles together, forcing the garlic through the textured surface and mincing it into small pieces.
Example
The chef used a garlic press to express the juice for the marinade.
