Garlic Granules
Garlic granules, also called granulated garlic, are dried garlic (Allium sativum) ground to a coarser texture than garlic powder, giving a similar pungent, slightly sweet flavor with less tendency to clump or scorch. Drying and grinding concentrate the garlic's natural compounds, so granules taste more intense and keep far longer on the shelf than fresh garlic. They are used in spice blends, dry rubs, and marinades, and to season meats, vegetables, and grains directly. Garlic granules pair well with onion powder, paprika, and black pepper, and with herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and oregano.
