Welp thats that. Good effort OP.
Same. It has to be the right level of dryness and the right sized cloves. The smash-and-peel method still works best for me.
I still take forever and end up just throwing pieces with the skin still on it into the pan or whatever. Gona have to try this.
Seems like the bullshit "you've been eating pineapple wrong!" video from a few months ago, but I'll give it a try.
I usually smash my garlic anyway and don't use a lot in bulk, so it doesn't really matter for me.

yeah this was floating around a while ago
it also doesn't really work well unless your garlic is super fresh apparently. i had no luck
this is the actual best way to peel garlic anyway:

Although after watching that video I might try it again, severing the root end first.
This seems a bit magical. Not quite to the level of my wife's peeling of pomegranate, but still.
Ah, what were the caveats?
My method of applying pressure to individual pieces to peel them (smash-and-peel as I see above) works alright, this seems like t would save even more time.

Cutting the roots using a small sharp knife first sounds way too dangerous for me, I think I'll leave it thanks.
Would the shaking method work with bowls that aren't stainless steel?

I guess you could not do the whole clove, but in my head I would be worried that people will go out and do the whole clove and store it or something. While not realizing the alliin creation only lasts a few days. I would also fear of rot if you did this and stored them after, but not 100% on the second one.
I only ever need a few cloves at a time so I just yank them off the bulb and smack 'em with my heavy knife to remove the skin.
Prepare to be disappointed. It's very inconsistent.
Exactly. Unless you need the clove to be flawlessly whole. I can't think of a scenario where that's necessary.
At home no, but large amounts of garlic does require some sort of cheat, all food items do in a professional kitchen.
First time seeing the one in the OP though, that looks like the garlic needs to be super dry before it gains any humidity from the fridge so that the skin doesn't stick to it. Baaically useless on a daily level. Smash and clean is still my perferres method, therehave beem very few instances were I needed a whole clove to warrant actually cleaning it.
