    That's not just any salt, it's called sea salt. Its crystals look larger than the normal salt which the majority of people use, and apparently, sea salt is good for you.

    Sea salt is loaded with sodium which is in fact not at all good for you in the amounts typically used. One sodium is not any better or worse for you than another sodium.

    +Jedidiah Stopyro Sea Salt differs from Table Salt in that it's completely natural. It has colloidal minerals where-as Table Salt is basic Sodium Cl, unless it's Iodised (has Iodine added). Also, Sodium is good for you and whoever has told you otherwise is misinformed. Without Sodium I don't think you'd make it very far in life. The ONLY time you should be worried about consuming too much Sodium is if you're dehydrated.. have higher than normal Sodium on your blood tests, or Hypokalemia or something.

    +Divine Tree Unless you have a garlic mincer, then you have to double it's mass to get the desired result. If you are adding it to a recipe then you can simply add less salt or no salt... Salt can also act as a preservative - when we mince our garlic we usually add a pinch of salt and just a little canola oil to get it going in the mincer before freezing. The oil also helps to preserve it. You can put lemon juice which helps preserve it for longer, but I don't add any lemon juice.

    Natural is not the issue. Knowing the impurities present in sea salt helps you synthesize a more controlled equivalent. The main component is NaCl, with trace amounts of potassium, iron and zinc salts, overwhelmingly in chloride form. All of which you can create for yourself. However, buying table salt isn't the same thing as buying chemically pure sodium chloride. Funnily enough, table salt contains trace amounts of potassium, iron and zinc salts. However, you'll find that sodium, zinc and potassium chloride are the bits you want and are essential electrolytes.

    +Dick Fageroni Nah I beg to differ. His utility knife is made from probably German or Swedish steel which is not super hard. Also his knife is very thin which is why it can flex. A thicker chef's knife made from a stiffer Japanese steel of course won't bend like that.

    +Justin Doan Actually you got a big mistake there. German / Swedish steel is much harder than japanese steel, which is why it can flex without breaking. If you look at japanese Sushi knifes, you can see that they are much thicker, because 1. No flex is needed and 2. If the blade was thin enough to flex it would break, not flex. The flex is determined by how thin the blade is, not the steel.

    TheBisasam22 If you go with the HRC scale, I'm pretty sure a lot of Japanese knives would be harder by definition. It's a cultural difference between how people use and maintain knives and harder doesn't necessarily mean better but most German knives I see are in the mid 50s to upper 50s while Japanese ones hover around 60, plus minus 1 or 2. The ones I own are rated around 61-63 HRC

    I generally hear more chefs in favor of Japanese steel than German. Global knives are well respected by many chefs and they are reasonably priced and many people prefer them over Wusthof and Henkels. Kramer knives are on the high end and are carbon steel which holds a better edge but take more care. Real Kramers will cost you $300 an inch and have a wait list, however there are mass produced ones (via teaming up with Henkels) which aren't as good, but I imagine are still pretty damn great.

    it really depends on how you cook it still, generally the crushed cloves you can either roast which will make them very sweet and soft, remove all of that harsh sharp taste, which is very nice because you can press it right out and put it on meat or just eat it whole. You can also throw it into a hot pan with oil and other stuff and it will kind of perfume whatever you are cooking. This is a nice way to do for steak for example. With chopped garlic you kind of get the taste all through your meal but kind of more distributed than the sliced one. With the sliced one you'll get the occasional bite of garlic which can be nice but also a bit overpowering depending on where you use it. The crushed one is great for dips and dressing where you use it raw, as it absolutely needs to be spread out, a bit of raw garlic isn't very pretty, but if you crush it to a paste with a pestle & mortar together with some ginger, add some sesame oil, lime, honey and soy sauce you get an incredibly delicious asian style dressing.

    Any knife can be good, what matters is how well you maintain it. It's not good enough just to wash and dry it, you need to hone it every day you use it and sharpen it every few weeks. Either get a pull-through sharpener like the Chef's Choice brand ones or a whetstone. Don't use an electronic one, it's easier to make a bend in the edge with them. Honing steels come with nearly every knife set, and basically any will do the job just fine. If you've got all the care equipment though, I'd recommend a knife by Victorinox, the same company that makes the Swiss Army Knives. Babish knives are also good from what I've heard.

    I always used minced, which is probably like the way he cuts it like a tiny onion. Use a whole head and see what happens. It makes chili better.

    Is it better to use rock salt or sea salt for the garlic puree? Which one brings out more of the juices?

    Don't use rock salt! The grain is too big and it will just shoot out from under your knife. Use sea salt or kosher salt.

    Christina Gremore Thanks for the reply :) That makes sense. I was asking because I saw this video of this culinary school-trained chef doing this but, with rock salt. I'm sure, either way, you'll get the juices out.
