I use garlic powder on steaks for grilling, and granulated garlic in
soups. The granulated would burn on the grill. That's just a
description of the difference.

Just designations for the size the garlic has been processed into.
Granulated garlic may be slightly visible in some dishes, while power
pretty much disperses into invisibility. There are also garlic flakes,
which are larger than granules. All are (or should be) just plain
dehydrated garlic. 1 tsp granules = 1/2 tsp powder = 2 tsp flakes.

Google :-) I had a few in my bookmarks, or so I thought. There was one
really good one but I couldn't find it with Google. I think may have
been at allrecipes.com but it's not showing up. Anyway, here you go:

Googled on

"granulated garlic"

and read a few references. Bulkfoods.com (a company I've
satisfactorily ordered from) supplied the measurements. Seemed
reasonable to me, so I passed it along. Learned along the way that
'garlic salt' was 3/4 salt and 1/4 garlic. I just browse and gather
interesting info. I *thought* I had a jar of granulated garlic (I
often will just look at labels on what I have on hand), but it was
just old, clumpy garlic salt. I tossed it. I have too much time on
my hands. :-)

You should be able to find it at the grocery store. Look in
the Mexican food section for garlic granules. It hangs on
hooks with the ground chilies & dried oregano. I've bought
flakes from time to time, but find that granules are all
purpose and very handy when I don't have the inclination to
use fresh or when I need more garlic than I have cloves on
hand.

I generally buy spices from a chain called Henry's or Whole Food Market. I
like the fact that I can buy small quantities so I don't have the stuff
lying around for years.

I wish the labeling was more universal.
