What it is
Granulated garlic is dried garlic that has been ground into small particles. It is made by dehydrating fresh garlic cloves and then milling them into a powder or granular form. This process concentrates the flavor and extends its shelf life.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use granulated garlic primarily as a flavoring agent to impart a savory, pungent taste to foods. It is a convenient alternative to fresh garlic, offering a more consistent flavor profile and easier incorporation into dry mixes. It is commonly found in spice blends, marinades, sauces, processed meats, and baked goods.
Health notes
Garlic, in its various forms including granulated, is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is a source of various compounds that have been studied for potential health benefits, though research is ongoing and evidence is mixed. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated garlic preparations. At typical dietary intake levels, it is considered safe.
Allergen info
Garlic is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
