Homemade Garlic Powder

Ingredients

8–10 heads of fresh garlic

Instructions

Peel the garlic

Separate the cloves and remove all the skins.

Slice the garlic

Cut the cloves into thin slices. Thin slices help them dry faster.

Dehydrator method:

Dry at 55–60°C (130–140°F) for 6–8 hours.

Grind into powder

Place the dried garlic slices in a blender, spice grinder, or coffee grinder.

Blend until a fine powder forms.

Store

Put the garlic powder in an airtight glass jar and store in a cool, dry place.

Optional Tip

For a smoother powder, sift it through a fine sieve and grind any larger pieces again.
