Granulated Garlic versus Garlic Powder

  I saw an Instagram video on the difference between granulated garlic and garlic powder.  Granulated garlic is better, more flavourful.  The same goes for granulated onion versus onion powder.  I will have to gradually replace my supply of these spices as I just have the powder.  I also use a lot of fresh garlic and fresh onion in my cooking, which is even better.  

There are always new things to learn!

  10. My onion and garlic powders always clump up (maybe because I use so little of them). I changed to granulated and have no issues.

  12. There certainly is, I didn't even know there was such a thing as granulated garlic. Like you I like to have the fresh but there are times when my little frozen cubes or powder are used. Thanks for the info Christine.

  15. I think fresh is best where possible but it's always handy to have a full back in the cupboard.

  20. Very nice. If you ever get to dehydrate your own. OH MY YUM. So good. And ginger too. Hecka good! Though the onions really stink up the place so I often dry those outdoors in the machine.

  21. I love trying out new things in the kitchen! It’s fascinating how the texture of garlic can change the final flavor of a recipe so much. Thanks for sharing this tip. Best wishes!

  22. That's a great tip. I use mostly fresh garlic and onions, but I may have some powder.
