Mc Currie Garlic Powder is dried garlic ground to a fine, pale powder, sold in a red vacuum-packed pouch. It is concentrated, so a small amount gives a strong garlic flavour without peeling or chopping.
As a rough guide, half a teaspoon of garlic powder stands in for one fresh clove. Because it is dry, it mixes evenly into rubs, batters and spice blends where fresh garlic would clump.
