Hammerman - pour boiling water over them and leave for a minute or two, makes life much easier!
watched jamie oliver,you dont need to peel just put it in the garlic press the way it is
I wonder could you put the whole bulb in a potato ricer...
garlic press? Who still uses those? lol ;-)
For cooking purposes frozen diced onions and frozen chopped garlic are much more convenient and cheaper than the real thing.

jamie pliver uses them,and me
cooked toms make me ill, just looking at them makes me feel sick, and the whole plum tomatos i'm convinced are really peeled testicles!

Garlic press = 5 seconds to use + 5 minutes washing up!

I wasn't really looking for a solution, just wanted a winge and wondered what tasks others found tiresome/unpleasant!

Thank god I'm not putting tinned tomatoes in my curry today!
Steak pie. Its the flouring, frying and stewing of the meat that I hate and the fact that I have to do this the day before so the flavours develope.
LOL Pixi about the Cornflour.

I am OK with flour in the Breadmaker - I don't have to touch it. I hate it though when it gets on a work surface and you have to wash it off and it goes all gooey.

Cornflour is OK because again I don't have to touch the stuff.

Not keen on cooking with eggs either because slimy raw eggs are so awful to look at. Actually, I don't like eating eggs much, especially if they are soft!!
And I don't prepare bananas - they are not even allowed in the house!! Evil things.
Chopping up swede. It needs a hammer and chisel!
Mr LL has to chop up the swede!! I simply can't do it. A chainsaw might help!!
Morrisons sell packs of frozen crushed garlic which is reasonably priced and very easy to use, I keep the pack in a polythene bag in the freezer once it has been opened so that the freezer doesn't get smelly.
if you give the garlic clove a short sharp whack under a knife (without crushing it) it's very easy to peel!!
butternut squash and swede. I just cannot cut them up. I hat touching parsnips too
Swede! Really hard to chop!
