Dried garlic

Dried garlic is a culinary ingredient made from fresh garlic cloves that have been dehydrated to remove moisture. Garlic itself is a bulbous plant related to the onion, with a strong, distinctive flavour used in cooking worldwide. Once dried, garlic becomes a concentrated form of the original cloves, intensifying its flavour and enabling longer storage without refrigeration.

To make dried garlic, fresh garlic cloves are peeled, sliced or minced, then dried through various methods such as air-drying or using dehydrators. The drying process removes the water content from the garlic, leaving behind the concentrated flavours and aromas. Once fully dried, the garlic pieces are often ground into a fine powder or granules for easy use in cooking.

Dried garlic is a common ingredient in many foods to add savoury depth and aroma. It appears on food labels because it enhances the taste of dishes, providing a pungent and slightly sweet flavour. You can find dried garlic in products like seasoning blends, marinades, sauces, soups, and dressings. It is also a staple in spice cabinets for home cooking, perfect for adding a kick to pasta dishes, stir-fries, roasted vegetables, and meat marinades.
