HOW TO USE GARLIC POWDER PROPERLY: SECRETS TO ELEVATING THE FLAVOR OF YOUR DISHES

Garlic powder has long been a “secret weapon” of professional chefs thanks to its convenience and powerful aroma. However, if used incorrectly, it can easily make dishes taste bitter or overly pungent. This article provides a complete guide to using garlic powder effectively and skillfully.

1. HOW TO USE GARLIC POWDER CORRECTLY FOR DIFFERENT DISHES

1.1. Marinating Ingredients

This is the most common use. For grilled meats, steaks, or braised fish, sprinkle garlic powder directly onto the ingredients together with salt and pepper to allow the flavor to penetrate evenly.

1.2. Preparing Sauces and Soups

Garlic powder is an ideal choice for dipping sauces, salad dressings, or creamy soups. Because it dissolves easily, it leaves no bits of garlic behind, giving sauces a smoother, more refined texture.

1.3. Making Garlic Butter Bread and Fried Dishes

To make restaurant-style garlic butter bread, mix garlic powder with unsalted butter and finely chopped parsley, then spread it over the bread. For dishes like French fries or fried chicken, sprinkle a little garlic powder immediately after cooking to create an irresistible aroma.

2. WHY USE GARLIC POWDER INSTEAD OF FRESH GARLIC?

Although fresh garlic is very healthy, garlic powder has clear advantages in certain situations:

+ Faster absorption: The fine powder form allows the seasoning to penetrate deep into the meat fibers—something minced garlic cannot easily achieve.

+ Better heat tolerance: When frying or grilling at high temperatures, fresh garlic burns easily and turns bitter, while garlic powder helps dishes cook evenly with a beautiful golden color.

+ Time-saving: Eliminates the need to peel and mince garlic.
