Best Answer

You do not need to squish (crush) garlic before cutting it. Depending on the use of garlic in different recipes, the cloves may be crushed, minced, chopped, sliced, slivered or used whole. Chefs often crush garlic cloves because the dry skin of each clove slips off easily after the clove is struck with the flat side of a knife. Partially crushed or flattened cloves are also easier to cut into a fine mince than whole cloves.
