What it is

Powdered garlic is dried garlic (Allium sativum) that has been ground into a fine powder. It is made by dehydrating fresh garlic cloves and then milling them. This process concentrates the flavor and extends shelf life.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use powdered garlic as a flavoring agent to impart the characteristic taste of garlic in a convenient, shelf-stable form. It is commonly found in savory products like spice blends, marinades, sauces, processed meats, snacks, and salad dressings.

Health notes

Garlic is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of various beneficial compounds, and some research suggests potential cardiovascular and immune benefits, though evidence is mixed and more research is needed. JECFA has evaluated garlic and its preparations, establishing guidelines for its use. It is not typically associated with adverse effects at the levels found in food.

Allergen info

Garlic is not one of the nine FDA major food allergens. It does not contain gluten.
