Yep, that's a pain. But i've found a couple preliminaries make it easier >>
especially if you're doing a lot. First, pull just the leaves off the stems and soak them. Then, dry well in a salad spinner and blot with paper towels. Crisp dry leaves without stems chop up really quickly.

That's the gadget for me. Where'd you get yours?
Locally, there is a great little shop called Kitchen Cookery - the type of place where if you hope
something exists, you'll find it there. But, looking at the peeler itself, it's called Ben Omessi's Original e-z-rol by Selandia, Spokane WA. Google, maybe? If no luck, let me know. I'll send you one!

Diane, that's very sweet of you but I'm intrepid and will find one here in LA.
Steve, they're available at most kitchen stores. Click on the link for a photo and description.
If you have a SurLaTable in your area, I know they carry them.

Sur La Table!? I'm headed that way this week. Thanks, Pat.
Just a little extra info on the e-z-roll
When they first came out, I had to call the company to order one. The company is The Omessi Group, Ltd. in Northridge, California, which is a company that develops products for the handicapped. The idea of the garlic peeler was that it can be used one-handed. I don't know if they make any other kitchen products, but I hope they have done well with this. It's a quick and easy way to peel garlic without crushing or boiling the clove.
