Using the Garlic Zoom

Chopping is so last year!
(Garlic Zoom - original)

Chopping garlic is a right rigmarole but it’s something anyone familiar with a frying pan does on a regular basis. Yes, you can use one of those clunky presses, or even get busy with a knife, but why bother when you can chop up your cloves with the revolutionary Garlic Zoom.

Ideal for flavour freaks looking to minimise garlicky fingers and stinky surfaces, this nifty little gizmo makes chopping garlic fun and easy. Simply open the top, pop in a small to medium peeled clove and push the Zoom backwards and forwards on your worktop. The more you roll, the finer the garlic. Next, open the lid, give it a tap and watch in wonder (well, sort of) as the itty bitty garlic bits fall out. Genius!

As well its ingenious design the Garlic Zoom is a doddle to wash. Just rinse it under the tap or remove its sturdy stainless steel blade and put the components in the dishwasher.

Cleaning the Garlic Zoom

Real easy to clean
(Garlic Zoom - original)

Unlike some of the kitchen gadgets you’ve undoubtedly seen on inferior sites and late night shopping channels, the Zoom is not some shoddily made novelty; it’s a practical, well-engineered bit of kit that will last for years. You’ll wonder how you ever managed without one. It will completely reignite your passion for the pungent little plant.

Different colours

Colours are picked at random!
(Garlic Zoom - original)

Down in the Firebox canteen, chef and his team have taken to the Garlic Zoom big time. In fact they’re having so much fun they’ve been bunging garlic in everything. Which, breath issues aside, can only be a good thing. Because as well as giving vampires the willies, garlic is a wonder food with a reputation for thwarting everything from the common cold to acne. So what are you waiting for? Chop chop and roll with it!

Got the zoom, so decided to film it while cooking tea. Really could've used a gorillapod, but ended up balancing the camera on bowls and microwaves.

press review Dices garlic to perfection
Stuff - Jan '11
press review "Four stars. Chopping up cloves with this nifty Garlic Zoom minimises garlicky fingers and stinky surfaces."
The People - Nov '10
press review "...minimise pungent fingers and sticky surfaces with this brilliant gizmo."
London Lite - Jun '09
press review "It's like a little car for you garlic, and the more you drive it, the more finely chopped it becomes. And, as much as we like the pungent veg, we can't help but feel that this might come in handy for chopping any other herby substances you may have in your home"

visitor avatar I bought this little gadget for my fiancée and he's well chuffed! He just loves it, especially for when he makes curry and can not only finely chop the garlic, but also the ginger! :-) (after he's cut it into little cubes obviously) Now he wants to buy about five or six more for his sister, mum and aunties! LOL A great success overall!
Danae, London - 21st February 2012
visitor avatar This is a kitchen must, had ours for a number of years and would so get another if parted from ours.
Andy, Essex - 17th February 2012
visitor avatar This is a fab little gadget for making chopping garlic really easy! Also great for chopping up chillies without burning your fingers too :).
Jude, Surrey - 7th November 2011
Firebox says: We're glad you like it June! - we've heard it's great with herbs too, but chillies is another fantastic application of the Garlic Zoom. Is there anything you can't zoom?
visitor avatar I use mine to finely chop POTATOES, no not really but I love it when Keith Lemon says "POTATO" as everybody else says it. Simplifies and de-stinkifies the chopping of garlic. Only one small gripe, it can be tricky getting all the garlic out of the wee bugger, it's almost like it's demanding payment for doing all the work.
Adam Caruth, Bangor, N.Ireland - 1st May 2011
visitor avatar The most amazing kitchen gadget ever - saves getting those horrid sticky fingers you tend to get when chopping garlic small - and stops it sticking to everything in sight!
Jude, Surrey - 4th March 2011
visitor avatar I bought one of these when they first came out. I love it. I make a lot of Italian food and I love garlic so this saves me a good half an hour minimum throughout the week.
Ben, Moscow - 13th December 2010
visitor avatar Would this work on onions? Cut up a bit first, obviously... I like my onion super super fine and it's an irritating job!
Holly Green, Kent - 8th December 2010
Firebox says: It sure would Holly! In fact, we've heard of customers using it with herbs and various vegies, as long as they're cut up small enough to fit inside.
visitor avatar I could not live without this indispensable bit of kit! It makes little fiddly jobs a piece of cake! I've used it to chop garlic, carrots (to hide them from my veg-avoiding hubby), and all manner of herbs, time-saving and easy! I could really not recommend this product enough!
Rhi, Pontypridd - 14th November 2010
visitor avatar Pure genius! used to hate the job of cutting up garlic finely, to grate ginger and wearing gloves to cut up chillies. This little gizmo makes it all so quick and easy, and rather enjoyable. It is a bit fiddly to get all the bits of garlic out, I found a plastic coffee stirrer works wonders. But yes ideal for any garlic lovers that hate the job of preparing it!
Michelle, Sunderland - 3rd November 2010
visitor avatar I am now on my third order for this wonderful gadget, not because it is broken after months of daily use but because everyone keeps taking my spare one!! It makes a fiddly, smelly job a joy! I wouldn't want to be without one.
