If I’m peeling a whole bulb (which is about as many as I use normally) I’ll mash the bulb to crush apart the cloves, then shake them inside two bowls to knock the skins off.

Made some amazing braised spare ribs last night with that technique.

    This is the way I do it too. Works amazingly well.

    In case it's not clear, you use two large bowls, mouth to mouth like a clam shell. Shake the hell out of them, then it will be just naked cloves and paper inside.

    You can separate the cloves and pop them in the microwave for 20-30 seconds and the escaping steam pops the skins right off.
