Garlic Salt

Garlic Salt

The name speaks for itself. Garlic salt. Two culinary powerhouses combining in one convenient form. Fresh, whole garlic cloves are first dried thoroughly, then ground into fine granules. The garlic is then added to table salt, creating this simple seasoned salt.

The uses for this seasoning are endless. At its most basic level, you can use it anywhere that calls for regular salt. The addition of the garlic in this somewhat diluted form will enhance the flavor without overpowering it with the trademark pungent presence fresh garlic brings. Dry rubs, marinades and dressings are emboldened, vegetables come alive and meats stand out with the addition of that extra kick from the granulated garlic.

Garlic is a plant in the allium (onion) family. Its intense flavor and aromatic qualities make it a culinary essential worldwide, but it’s also revered for its medicinal properties and nutritional benefits. Rich in vitamins and minerals (vitamin B6, vitamin C, selenium, calcium, copper, phosphorus, iron, manganese and many important antioxidants), garlic is also known to boost immune function, reduce blood pressure, improve cholesterol and contain anti-inflammatory properties. Mount Hope Wholesale also sells finely ground powdered garlic, minced garlic, coarsely ground garlic granules and whole, roasted cloves — but this easy, one-two combination of garlic and salt make this particular seasoning a vital addition to your kitchen.
