Garlic and herb breading mix

Garlic and Herb Coating Mix is a dry preparation designed to add flavor and a crunchy texture to various foods, especially meats, fish, seafood, and vegetables. This mix combines garlic powder, dried aromatic herbs (such as parsley, oregano, thyme, and basil), and other dry ingredients like flour or breadcrumbs, which facilitate a uniform and tasty coating when frying or baking.

Originating from Mediterranean and European culinary techniques, the garlic and herb coating mix has been adapted in Latin American cuisine to enhance traditional dishes, providing an aromatic touch and an intense flavor that complements the freshness of the ingredients.

Among its properties, its ability to enhance the flavor with notes of garlic and natural herbs stands out, along with its crunchy texture that improves the sensory experience of the preparations. Using this type of mix also facilitates a more uniform cooking process, reducing excessive oil absorption and achieving a perfect golden brown finish.

In different Latin American countries, this mix may have similar or related names such as garlic and herb breading mix, aromatic coating, or simply garlic and herb breadcrumbs. Its use is common in both home and professional recipes to prepare dishes such as crispy garlic chicken, herb-breaded fish, or fried vegetables with a Mediterranean flavor.
