Swagat Garlic Powder 100 gm

Swagat Garlic Powder 100?g — what it is, what to expect from it, and how it can be used in your cooking.

? What is it

Swagat Garlic Powder is a spice made from dehydrated garlic cloves that have been finely ground into powder.

It comes packaged in a 100?g pack, which is a common and convenient size for home kitchens.

As with other garlic powders, it offers a way to get garlic’s flavor and aroma without needing to peel, chop or crush fresh garlic — making cooking easier and faster.

?? Flavor, Aroma & Characteristics

The powder has a garlicky, savory, pungent flavor, though — as usual with garlic powder — the flavor tends to be slightly milder and more evenly distributed compared to fresh garlic.

Because it’s finely ground, it mixes smoothly and distributes uniformly in dishes, which helps when you want consistent garlic flavor throughout (e.g. sauces, gravies, dough, spice blends).

Texture?wise: powder is dry and easy to store; it doesn’t add moisture to a dish (unlike fresh garlic), which can be useful in spice rubs, dry rubs, or seasoning dry snacks.

?? Typical Uses in Cooking

Swagat Garlic Powder can be used in many ways — often anywhere you would use garlic, but especially in cases where fresh garlic is inconvenient or where you want a subtler, evenly spread flavor:

Curries, dals, gravies, stir?fries — add while cooking to build a garlic?based flavor base.

Marinades & spice rubs — mix with other spices (salt, pepper, herbs) to season meats, paneer, vegetables before grilling/roasting.

Soups, sauces, and gravies — easy to dissolve and gives smooth garlic flavor without the texture of garlic pieces.

Dry seasoning for snacks — sprinkling over roasted veggies, popcorn, nuts, or using in spice mixes / masalas.

Breads, doughs, fast?food style dishes — ideal when you want a mild garlic hint in breads, pizza bases, wraps, without fresh?garlic pieces.

?? Advantages of Using Garlic Powder

Convenience & Time?saving: No peeling or chopping of garlic — just measure and add. Particularly handy when you cook often or cook many dishes in a day.

Shelf?stable & easy storage: Unlike fresh garlic, garlic powder stays good for months (if stored properly: cool, dry, airtight).

Even flavor distribution: Because it’s powder, flavor spreads evenly — useful in gravies, sauces, doughs, and dry rubs.

Versatility: Useful across cuisines — Indian curries, gravies, stir?fries; snacks; sauces; marinades; perhaps even continental dishes needing garlic flavour.

?? What to Keep in Mind

Flavor difference vs fresh garlic: Garlic powder tastes somewhat different from fresh garlic — somewhat milder, less “fresh?sharp.” Some dishes (especially where you want strong garlic aroma or texture) may taste different if you substitute powder directly for cloves.

Use quantity carefully: Because powder is concentrated and evenly spreads, a little can go a long way — overuse might overpower the dish.

Storage matters: Keep in a cool, dry and airtight container to preserve flavour; exposure to moisture or heat may degrade aroma or cause clumping.
