Garlic powder

Natural Garlic Powder

Garlic powder is natural garlic, dried and ground into a fine, homogeneous powder that retains the full pungent, distinctive flavor of fresh garlic and its exceptional medicinal properties in a more practical, easier-to-use form with a milder odor than fresh garlic. It is carefully extracted from dried Allium sativum cloves, and the drying and grinding process significantly concentrates its active compounds — one small spoon of garlic powder is equivalent to two to three cloves of fresh garlic in flavor and benefits. It contains the legendary compound allicin, which makes garlic one of the strongest natural antibiotics in the world, and which scientists have described as "natural penicillin" for its amazing effectiveness against bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

At Al-Mawaddah store, we offer you pure natural garlic powder of the highest purity and quality, carefully dried and ground to preserve its full flavor and authentic therapeutic properties.

⚡ Al-Mawaddah Tip: Add garlic powder at the beginning of cooking with warm oil to fully release its flavor — but avoid very high heat, which can cause it to lose allicin and turn bitter.
