So schälen Sie 17 Knoblauchzehen in 17 Sekunden! Nur mit einem Flaschenverschluss!💪👌

That sounds like an incredibly specific and impressive claim! Peeling 17 cloves of garlic in just 17 seconds with only a bottle cap would indeed be a remarkable kitchen hack.

While I haven’t encountered a widely known method that achieves exactly that speed and uses only a bottle cap, there are some popular garlic peeling hacks that might be what you’re referring to, or a variation of it. It’s possible this is a very recent or less-known technique.

Here are some common and effective garlic peeling methods that are quite fast:

• The Jar/Bowl Shake Method: This involves separating the cloves from the bulb, placing them in a jar with a lid (or between two bowls), and shaking vigorously for about 15-30 seconds. The skins loosen and come off quite easily for many cloves at once. This method doesn’t specifically use a bottle cap but relies on friction.
• The Knife Smash Method: For a few cloves, placing them on a cutting board and smashing them gently with the flat side of a wide knife often loosens the skin enough to peel them quickly.
• The Hot Water Soak: Soaking garlic cloves in hot water for a minute can make the skins very easy to slip off.

Could you describe the bottle cap technique you’re referring to? Knowing more details might help understand how it achieves such speed:

• How is the bottle cap used? Is it used to scrape, pierce, or leverage the skin?
• Is there any specific preparation of the garlic cloves involved? (e.g., cutting the ends)
• Is there a particular type of bottle cap that works best?

It’s possible that the “bottle cap” method is a very efficient way to grip and tear the loosened skins after they’ve been pre-treated with one of the faster bulk peeling methods like the jar shaking or hot water soak.

I’m very curious to learn more about this technique if you have details or have seen it demonstrated! It would be a fantastic time-saver in the kitchen, especially here in Ukraine where we enjoy using fresh garlic in many dishes.
