Garlic flakes are small dehydrated pieces of fresh garlic that retain much of their characteristic flavor and aroma. They are commonly used as a seasoning in various recipes to provide an intense and concentrated garlic touch without the need to peel and chop fresh garlic. Their dry texture allows for extended preservation and easy dosing.
Garlic is native to Central Asia and has been a fundamental ingredient in world cuisine for thousands of years. In Latin American cuisine, garlic flakes offer a practical and quick way to incorporate flavor into dishes such as stews, sauces, marinades, and rubs.
Among their notable properties is their high content of sulfur compounds, especially allicin, which provides antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits. Furthermore, garlic flakes provide vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, B-complex vitamins, and manganese.
In different Spanish-speaking regions, garlic flakes may also be known as granulated garlic, garlic granules, or simply dehydrated garlic. These terms are used interchangeably in recipes to refer to this practical and versatile product.
