Garlic powder is made from dehydrated garlic flakes that have been ground into a powdery substance. It is used as a seasoning.
Garlic powder is used in various recipes, such as soups, sauces, stews or as a seasoning for meat dishes. Basically, garlic powder is used instead of garlic cloves, in meals which require the same flavour, but not the same texture as the one belonging to the fresh garlic, which, if not minced, can’t spread its aroma.
