GarlicZoom Chopper: Chop Garlic Fast Without Tears

Quick answer

The updated GarlicZoom garlic chopper lets you mince garlic in seconds without touching the blades, and with the right technique you can avoid tears entirely.

How to chop garlic with the GarlicZoom

1. Prepare the garlic: Peel the cloves you want to mince. For best results, use the GarlicCone Peeler first to remove skins quickly. If cloves are very large, cut them in half so they fit inside the chamber.
2. Load the chamber: Open the GarlicZoom completely and drop the peeled cloves into the chamber. Do not overfill; leave a little room for the blades to move. Overfilling can cause uneven mincing or make the blades stick.
3. Close and zoom: Close the lid securely and press down firmly while twisting the top back and forth a few times. You will hear the blades mincing the garlic. Press down steadily—too much force can jam the mechanism.
4. Check and repeat if needed: Open the chamber and check the consistency. If you want a finer mince, close and twist a few more times. For a coarse chop, twist only 3-4 times. For a paste, twist 8-10 times.
5. Clean without touching blades: Rinse the chamber under running water while it is still open. The blades are sharp but you never need to touch them—just let water flush out the garlic bits. Wash immediately after use to prevent garlic residue from drying on the plastic.
