Garlic salt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Garlic salt is a seasoned salt used as food seasoning made of a mixture of dried ground garlic and table salt with an anti-caking agent (e.g. calcium silicate).[1] In its most basic form it is made by combining 3 parts salt and 1 part garlic powder by volume, or 6 parts salt and 1 part garlic powder by weight.
It can be used as a substitute for fresh garlic, such as in dishes like burgers or chili.
It should not be confused with minced garlic[citation needed], granulated garlic, or garlic powder, which are just ground dried garlic, also sold as spices.
Garlic powder can be made into garlic salt by pouring it into a bowl with salt and pouring humectant on it.[citation needed]
