granulated
Made into grains
Granulated describes something formed into small grains or particles.
Sugar is the most common granulated substance—granulated sugar has been processed into fine, uniform crystals that pour and dissolve easily.
The term applies to other materials broken down into granules: granulated fertilizer, granulated garlic.
Wounds may granulate as they heal, forming grainy new tissue.
