Granulated Garlic

Granulated garlic is dehydrated garlic that has been ground to a coarse, sand-like texture. Compared with garlic powder, the larger particles flow better, resist caking, and disperse more evenly in seasonings and rubs without turning pasty. It offers a concentrated garlic flavor with long shelf life and consistent potency.

Cooks use granulated garlic to add immediate, even garlic character to dry blends, rubs, sauces, soups, and marinades. It tolerates brief blooming in fat to amplify aroma, rehydrates quickly in liquids, and gives a subtle texture without visible flakes. As a rough guide, about 1/3 teaspoon granulated garlic approximates the flavor of one fresh clove.
