Garlic Powder

In spice blends and dry rubs, garlic powder is a popular addition. It's used to season meats and vegetables, and it's a tasty complement to popcorn and roasted nuts. Garlic powder can also be used to give low-sodium foods a more vibrant flavour.

Dried garlic flakes that have been ground into a powder are used to make this popular condiment. Because garlic powder is highly concentrated, a small amount goes a long way. Fresh garlic cloves are frequently substituted with garlic powder, with 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder equaling one fresh clove of common garlic.
