Haha! Isn't it great? It's a hell of a lot easier to clean than a garlic press too. Mine is so filthy that I'm half afraid to use it- all the tiny bits of garlic stuck in the holes... yuck. And honestly, who has the time to sit there with a toothpick, poking out each one individually? IMHO if you know how to use a knife properly and have a decent one, it's faster just to mince it by hand!
Now if someone would just post up a spaetzle tutorial... I dig that shit with a SHOVEL and still haven't attempted it with the potato ricer,a nd that's one of the other main uses for the thing. I bet it would be a GREAT use for your cannabutter, too! And what's the Polish equivalent? It's like pierogi dough but pressed out spaetzle-stlyle and cooked in butter and milk. I can't remember the name. But DAYUM as a munchie food it's straight DANGEROUS!
