How to Peel Large Quantities of Garlic

 

I just recently saw a way to peel large quantities of garlic in a hurry and I had to try it. 

Sure, I have one of those garlic roll-y thingies, but this method is more fun and is faster if you have a lot of garlic to peel:

 

Break off the number of cloves you need.  Place them in two same sized aluminum bowls, one on top of the other... and start shaking.

 

It works! 

I've even used two same-sized aluminum loaf pans instead of bowls. 

I find it works best if you sing when you do it.  Any Beatles, Cars or Outkast song will do.
