Description

Our Chinese Garlic Powder is an excellent alternative for recipes that call for minced garlic and it lasts for a long time (some folks will say up to 2-3 years although we still prefer to replace it every 6 – 12 months) and just a little bit will go a long way. Made from pure dehydrated garlic our garlic powder has no preservatives or anti-caking agents. We also like to use it as a substitute to adding salt to our meals and even keep a small shaker of it on the kitchen table. Because garlic powder tends to cling to damp surfaces it is also excellent for use in homemade marinades, seasoning blends and rubs. Because garlic is so versatile it goes well with anything savory and works well in combination with just about all spices and herbs.

Chinese Garlic Powder is a finely ground powder made from dehydrated garlic bulbs commonly cultivated in China. Known for its potent aroma and strong, savory flavor, Chinese garlic powder is a versatile spice that adds depth to a wide range of dishes without the hassle of peeling or chopping fresh garlic. It’s an essential ingredient in various cuisines, providing a bold, slightly sweet, and robust garlic flavor that elevates any meal.

Production Process: Chinese garlic powder is made by drying fresh garlic cloves until they are completely free of moisture, then grinding them into a fine powder. This dehydration process not only preserves the garlic’s flavor and nutrients but also extends its shelf life, making it a convenient and long-lasting addition to your pantry. The drying process helps concentrate the flavor, allowing even a small amount of garlic powder to deliver a strong garlic taste.

Nutritional Benefits: Chinese garlic powder is packed with nutrients, including vitamins B6 and C, as well as essential minerals like manganese, selenium, and calcium. Garlic contains beneficial compounds like allicin, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may support immune health, heart health, and overall well-being. Using garlic powder in cooking can offer some of these health benefits, making it not only a flavorful but also a nutritious choice.

Culinary Uses: Chinese garlic powder is incredibly versatile in the kitchen. It’s a staple for seasoning meats, vegetables, sauces, and marinades. Use it in soups, stir-fries, curries, and rubs to add a rich garlic flavor. It’s also ideal for dry rubs on meats and blends well in spice mixes, salad dressings, and dips. Since it dissolves easily, garlic powder is perfect for adding a consistent garlic flavor to sauces and gravies.

In summary, Chinese garlic powder is a convenient and flavorful way to enhance dishes. Discover high-quality Chinese garlic powder at AGT Pantry to boost your culinary creations. Click here to explore our full range today.
