Joseph Joseph Helix Garlic Press

Joseph Joseph Helix Garlic Press

Product number: 72242

Crushing garlic can be a difficult chore if you find it difficult to grip and squeeze at the same time, so the clever inventors at Joseph Joseph have turned to the rotational power of a helix to help create their Helix Garlic Press.

How it works

Pop one or two cloves of garlic inside the flat-bottomed, stainless steel hopper – it doesn’t matter whether they’re peeled or not – line up the red dots and slot the top half into the helical grooves, then push the handles towards each other. The helix action does the crushing without any strain and any skin is held inside for you to discard.

Other features

Made from durable, odour-resistant stainless steel and nylon. Comes apart for easy cleaning.

Joseph Joseph Helix – the science bit

The design team at Joseph Joseph worked out that using a 180° helical twist would mean cooks could utilise their upper body strength, using the naturally strong muscle groups in arms and shoulders rather than relying on having a firm grip. The resulting Helix range of products makes mashing, ricing, juicing and crushing garlic much easier than in conventional lever-press versions.
