In the online video, someone is holding a knife in one hand and a head of garlic in the other. To efficiently peel the garlic, the knife’s point is used to stab each individual clove, and a pulling motion quickly separates the clove, sans peel. The process is exceedingly efficient.

Internet users are smitten. So many are retweeting the hack, including model and acclaimed cookbook author Chrissy Teigen. She shared the video with her followers, adding the comment, “WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT.”

People are reacting with stunned amazement, and some are downright angered that they never knew of this awesome cooking trick in the past.
