garlic powder

Granulated pungent seasoning

Garlic powder is dried garlic ground into a fine powder, used as a seasoning.

It provides garlic flavor without the texture or moisture of fresh cloves: I added garlic powder to the rub.

Convenient for dry spice blends, rubs, and recipes where fresh garlic might burn or clump.
