The present invention provides a cutter for cutting garlic comprising a cutting part comprising at least an upper and lower grid of cutting edges separable stacked on each other, and a punching part for pressing the garlic towards said grids of cutting edges for cutting the garlic. The cutting part that cuts the garlic into pieces preferably comprises two layers of grids with cutting edges laid on each other. The upper grid can be removed from the lowe grid, so that the leavings from the garlic that may be bound in the upper and/or lower grid is easier to remove. Further, the two grids may be displaced positioned on and in relation to each other, so that the 'common holes' provided by the two grids are smaller than the holes in each grid. Thus, it is possible to choose between different hole sizes; one small size when using both grids and one larger size when both grids.
