Staying as Healthy as We Can Food and Pesticides

Would you please let us know how you managed to make garlic powder?

I don't have any machines to dehydrate but if a oven or dehumidifier would work I'm game

I made quite a large batch by putting the garlic in a blender and the spread it out on a square pizza pan. Then I dried it in the oven set on a very low temperature. After it was dry I put it back in the blender to make it a fine powder. Oh! It turned out so good I couldn't believe it. I made sure Susie wasn't home for a long time, when you dry it the smell can get quite strong. Thanks for asking @Marie2020

I forgot to tell you I separate and peel the cloves first. After the cloves are separated, I soak them in water over night and wow they peel easy.

Hello Mark waving and sending you a big friendly hug. (My emoji's are not working)

That's brilliant, I always thought we had too own a dehydrator, I would get one but there's no room in my kitchen.

Thanks so much for this valuable information. I have a blender this is great .

What I'm even more happy about is that others can maybe learn this clever trick now. You're a life saver

Would that kill the goodness in the garlic?

No! I use R.O. Water and I also forgot to tell you I clip the little root node off the bottom.

I don't boil it I use cold water and minimum heat in the drying process.
