Turkish Garlic Powder – Taşköprü Dried Ground Garlic, 100g

Garlic powder is fresh garlic that's been dried and finely ground, so you get all the flavor of a clove without the peeling, chopping, or sticky fingers. Kuru Yeşil makes theirs from Taşköprü garlic — the garlic grown in the Kastamonu region of northern Turkey that carries a protected geographical indication (PGI) and is known for an unusually intense, sharp aroma and high dry-matter content. Dried and milled on its own, it's a single-ingredient spice: nothing but garlic, with no salt, no anti-caking agents, and no preservatives. A little goes a long way. As a rough guide, about an eighth of a teaspoon stands in for one small clove, and a level teaspoon does the work of three to four. Because it disperses evenly and won't burn or clump the way fresh minced garlic can, it's especially good in dry spice rubs and seasoning blends where fresh garlic would scorch. Reach for it whenever you want clean garlic flavor: • Rubs for chicken, beef, and lamb, and homemade seasoning mixes • Garlic bread, focaccia, and savory doughs — stir it into softened butter or olive oil • Marinades, salad dressings, and dips where you don't want raw garlic texture • Soups, stews, sauces, rice, roasted vegetables, and pasta • Sprinkled over fries, popcorn, or eggs for an instant lift It blends straight into both hot and cold dishes, so there's no need to soften or sauté it first. Keep the pack sealed in a cool, dry cupboard away from steam and direct heat, and it holds its punch for a long time — one of the reasons dried garlic is such a practical staple to keep on hand. The 100g pack is a generous amount of pure ground garlic for everyday cooking.
