How to Make Garlic Powder
store bought versions. It's concentrated taste allows you to use less
and it's free of unhealthy preservatives.
Ingredients:
- 4 large fresh garlic bulbs
Directions:
- remove the papery skins from the garlic bulbs to reveal the fresh garlic cloves
- using a sharp knife, cut the cloves into thin slices
- lay the slices out onto the dehydrator trays
- place the dehydrator to the vegetable setting
- allow to dehydrate for 6-10 hours or until the slices become dry and brittle
(NOTE: you can also use an oven instead of a dehydrator. Place the slices on a fine wire cooling rack that is placed onto a baking sheet. Use the lowest heat setting on the oven and wedge the oven door open with a wooden spoon, to allow for heat to escape. The heat of ovens varies, so 6-10 hours should also suffice.)

- once fully dried and cooled, use a spice grinder (or coffee grinder) to finely grind up the garlic
- store in a glass jar and place in a cool dry place (not the refrigerator)
