Our organic minced garlic, is dehydrated garlic that has been finely minced. Garlic cloves are minced and then placed into a dehydrator.

Minced garlic is excellent for evenly distributing subtle garlic flavor into your dish. Because the garlic pieces are small, they will soften more quickly than a garlic clove and dissolve into other ingredients of your recipe.

Garlic is a bulb vegetable that is the headliner of the "allium" genus, so much so that "allium" is literally the word for garlic in Latin. This groups of flowering plants includes a massive amount of species, including scallions, onions, shallots, leeks, chives, and other marvelously stinky greens. Believed to be native to Central Asia, South Asia, or Southwester Siberia, its use has become global even to European culinary traditions such as Italian, Spanish, and French.

As much as it's used to enhance the nutrients and flavors of dishes, it's also used medicinally and spiritually in various cultures, including in China, the world's top garlic producer. This country's climate is ideally suited for growing garlic, which is why it provides 80% of the world's total each year, a whopping 20 million tons!

Of the 20 tons of garlic produced by China each year, the majority come from Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Yunna, and Jiangsu. Five provinces whose mild winters and warm climates soft-neck garlic find appealing. Although over 300 types of garlic are cultivated around the world, this is the category most of the garlic we consume falls under.
