I tried freezing my garlic and ginger instead of mincing fresh. Total game changer.

I used to spend like 10 minutes every night chopping garlic and ginger for stir fries. Then my sister from Austin told me to just freeze whole cloves and peeled ginger chunks. Now I grab a frozen clove and grate it on a microplane in 10 seconds. No sticky fingers, no waste. Works way better than the jarred stuff too. Anyone else do this or am I weird?

Wait, you've been mincing fresh garlic every single night for stir fries? For 10 minutes? That's wild to me, man. I just buy the pre-minced garlic in a jar and call it a day, but now you got me thinking I've been missing out this whole time. Never even crossed my mind to freeze whole cloves and grate them like that. That's a level of kitchen prep I did not see coming.

Jarlic is fine for weeknights. But that frozen garlic trick is a game changer. Way better than the jar stuff.
