You should always at least double it

Oh good, you bought pre-peeled garlic that came in a plastic container rather than peeling the natural container it comes in...
I mean...this is a completely unstandable thing to do if you need a large amount of whole garlic. Despite many "tricks" that people use, peeling a large amount of garlic still takes a long time.
Oddly enough, the more garlic you have to peel the easier the standard method of shaking it between two bowls works.
Another method I like is cracking the skins with a knife and then rubbing them between my hands. But this sometimes cuts my palms so it might not be for everyone.
Probably because they're all bumping into each other. If you don't have many you can put them in a cocktail shaker or a plastic water bottle and shake them it works pretty well, but anything plastic will absorb the garlic smell of course!
