7.25" / 18.4cm, stainless steel. By using downward pressure and a ‘rocking’ motion it crushes garlic cloves quickly and evenly, forcing the pieces up through the perforations. Once crushed, the garlic pieces are held in the shallow bowl, allowing them to be spooned or scraped easily into a pan. Additional cloves can also be crushed at this stage before emptying. Can also be used to gently rub hands and to reduce any garlic odour (stainless steel removes the strong odours left from handling garlic). Dishwasher safe. Gift boxed.
