Kuhn Rikon Epicurean Garlic Press Reviews
I did this once and it was not pleasant. When you or done just open it up and run it under some water and the little bit of garlic that remains easily comes off the inside of the mincer.
I have run mine through the dishwasher many times with no ill effects. This press if very well made, heavy duty stainless steel, and cleans up easily.
I bought this garlic press after seeing it on America's Test Kitchen but I was a little concerned about spending $40 on a garlic press. Now that I have it I am convinced that it is worth every penny.
I highly recommend this to anyone who likes to mince their own garlic rather than use jarred garlic. Other than that you can stuff this thing full of garlic and it has plenty of leverage to mince it.
The only concern I have about this press is that you have to be careful when sqeezing it that you don't get the palm of you hand in between the two handles when they come together.
Build quality seems excellent and cleans up real easy. Only disapointment is that it's Made in China so washed it real good to remove a slimy chemical coating it had. Should last a life-time.
I don't like the handles as well as the Rosle's, which is why this is second best in my book. I like this press a lot, but not quite as much as the Rosle's. I bought this garlic press to compare with the Rosle garlic presses I own, to see if there was something better. We eat a lot of garlic and I've owned and tried dozens of presses; including Rosle, which I like best. If I couldn't have my favorite, this would be the one I'd choose. However, I find this Kuhn Rikon Epicurean press easy to use, easy to clean (goes right in the dishwasher), it presses garlic very well, is sturdy and made to last.
My newly purchased Kuhn Rikon Epicurean Garlic Press has seen a few meals already, and this Italiano with blunt fingers is very pleased the arrangement of the mincer and the plate pushes lots of garlic crush out of each "load" and the whole thing opens up wide for easy cleaning.
I would buy it all over again. This garlic press works great and is easy to clean.
