Description

Chopped garlic cloves are small segments of the garlic bulb, which have been finely cut or crushed to release their characteristic aroma and flavor. Garlic is a bulb that belongs to the Allium family, native to Central Asia, although its culinary use has spread throughout the world since ancient times.

In cooking, chopped garlic cloves are used to provide an intense, slightly spicy, and aromatic flavor to a wide variety of dishes, from sauces and stews to marinades and sautés. In addition to its flavor, garlic is recognized for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as its ability to improve cardiovascular health.

In different Latin American countries, chopped garlic cloves are also known simply as chopped garlic or in some places as finely chopped garlic. Their use is essential in many traditional recipes, adding depth and richness to flavors.
