Crushed Garlic
Unit price: 18.00 DH
Crushed garlic consists of dried garlic cut into small pieces, delivering a concentrated savoury garlic flavour while its coarse texture rehydrates well during cooking in soups, sauces, curries, tagines and other dishes containing liquid.
- Mixing with olive oil, lemon juice and spices to prepare marinades for meat, chicken or fish
- Adding at the beginning of cooking to soups, lentils, beans and tagines so the pieces soften and flavour the broth
- Stirring into tomato sauces, pasta sauces, curries and other dishes containing enough liquid to rehydrate the garlic
- Mixing into softened butter and leaving it to rest before spreading over bread or adding to cooked potatoes
- Combining with paprika, cumin, black pepper and dried herbs for seasoning blends and dry rubs
Use ¾ teaspoon of crushed garlic in place of one fresh garlic clove, add it directly to dishes containing broth or sauce, or rehydrate it in hot water for 5 to 15 minutes before use, and when preparing a dry rub mix it thoroughly with the remaining spices and a little oil.
Crushed garlic provides a clear garlic flavour without peeling or chopping fresh cloves, its small pieces distribute easily through seasoning blends and marinades, and they soften during cooking when added to soups, sauces, curries and tagines.
