Garlic Powder

Garlic powder is ground, dehydrated garlic.

It is a very common seasoning. Applications include pasta, pizza, and grilled chicken.

Garlic salt is simply salt plus garlic powder. (Pre-made products usually include an anti-caking agent.)

Garlic powder is a common component of spice mix. It is also a common component of seasoned salt.

Manufacturing Process

Garlic cloves are peeled and sliced. In most cases, the garlic is then heated to a temperature of between 150° and 160°C (~300-320°F). The water is removed to a moisture content of about 6.5%. The dehydrated garlic is then further sliced, chopped, or minced until the powder is reduced to the desired particle size.[1]

Health

Urology

Studies suggest that garlic powder taken orally as an daily supplement increases the presence of Interleukin 12 in human urine, thus acting as an Immunostimulant for the Urinary system.[2]
