To make garlic paste at home, you can either use a microplane or mince the garlic finely and add salt.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Mincing Method (if you don't have a microplane):
- Mince garlic into very small pieces. The finer the mince, the smoother your paste will be.
- Add a pinch of salt to the minced garlic. The salt helps break down the garlic further, drawing out moisture and creating a smoother consistency.
- Use the flat side of your knife to smash the garlic and salt together, further breaking down the garlic fibers. You can also use a mortar and pestle for this process.
This simple method allows you to create a usable garlic paste without specialized tools.
