Garlic Powder – 16 oz

Although it is one of the most important ingredients in all of the culinary arts, garlic nevertheless seems to mystify us when it comes to classifying it—is it an herb, spice, or vegetable? The simple answer is that garlic is a member of the lily family, along with Onions, Shallots and Leeks. Its intense and unique flavor and aroma make it a mainstay of cuisines around the world, nearly indispensable in just about every form of Asian, European, African, Latin American, and North American cooking. Most of the garlic sold in the United States comes from China with a small percentage grown in California. Garlic is often cooked, but can also be incorporated raw into recipes.
