Description
Garlic is the dried root of Allium sativum, a member of the lily family. Garlic grows in a bulb that consists of a number of cloves. Each clove is protected by a layer of skin, but all are held together in one larger unit by additional layers of skin.
Granulated garlic is prepared in the same way as garlic powder. The only difference between the two is that granulated garlic has a thick, cornmeal-like texture, while garlic powder is finely ground. This versatile flavour is used to complement a huge variety of savoury dishes including all kinds of meat and roast potatoes. Garlic is used in cuisines throughout the world. It is indispensable in Chinese, Italian, and Mexican foods
