Peel away the skin on the garlic and separate it into cloves.
Using the flat part of your knife smash the top of the clove. This will help break open the skin and separate the clove. Remove any outer skin that is left and then cut off the darker pointed edge.
Thinly slice the clove and then chop with your knife until it is minced. Use garlic within the hour or store in the refrigerator.
