GARLIC, GRANULATED-Irradiated (H18I)

Garlic (Allium sativum) is a member of the lily family and a widely used and commonly known herb. This fine, off-white Granulated Garlic is an advantageous and time-saving swap in the kitchen because it has all the flavor of fresh garlic, but does not spoil or leave residual flavoring on hands, knives or cutting boards. Garlic is used in cuisines throughout the world cuisine, and is a staple ingredient in Italian, Asian and Middle Easter recipes. Native to Asia, garlic is thought to be one of the oldest cultivated herbs, dating back to ancient Egyptian times where it was used for its strength enhancing properties. Consumed by the builders of the pyramids as well as Greek and Roman athletes, Garlic has long been thought to aid in cardiovascular health as well as having antibacterial and antiviral effects.
