Shedding Some Skin (Garlic that is)

I adore garlic and cook with very frequently. As a result, I often crawl into bed with garlic perfumed fingertips. This is not at all sexy. The pre-peeled, jarred/bagged variety is not good. Are there really any of those devices for peeling garlic that actually make the task faster and keep your skin untainted?

Garlic!

I would like to know the best way to cook garlic. I have always used garlic powder because I wasn't quite sure how to peel, chop, cook, saute or whatever else you should do with fresh garlic. Also I have heard it can become bitter, how do I prevent that? Thanks.

Those green sprouts inside garlic

No matter how fresh the garlic is when I buy it, it always seems to develop those annoying little green centers shortly afterward. I always remove them because I find them to be bitter. Any ideas for preventing their appearance?

Special garlic butter recipe wanted!

I would LOVE to make the garlic butter served at Lebonese restaurants. It seems to be just raw garlic, maybe with just a hint of oil? It is really silky and smooth with the texture of soft, whipped butter. It is not bitter and since the color is almost white, I don't think the garlic is roasted. I would really appreciate if someone can share a recipe! Not only is it heaven with warm bread, but would make a killer rub for meat.
