Garlic Crusher
2005, RoyalVKB / 2017, BK cookware
Sometimes it is necesary to take a step backwards and to look what is really a problem. This garlic crushers started there. Instead of designing another sqeezer, the aim was to design a device that would be easy to clean.
- with the flat side of the roller you can first squeeze a piece of garlic slightle and take of the peel
- then you can crush the garlic thoroughly with the ribs on the roller
- after use you can clean the crusher easy under the tap
- when doing so the stainless steel takes away the smell of garlic on your hands.
