Garlic which do you use...
#11
I used to buy the jars of minced garlic, they are so convenient. But then I went back to fresh, I can taste the difference and smell the difference especially when sautéing the garlic with other veggies. I just try to be careful not to buy the garlic from China - I don't trust their food chain in general.

Hmm, never tried that. I always have fresh garlic in the fridge, use it a lot.......have one of those pampered chef garlic squeezers, better that trying to hand mince or smash on cutting board.....also have garlic powder in pantry, but usually reach for the fresh.....

I tend to use powdered garlic, now that I found a good source for it (actually, my roomie found it - he used to work in a factory that dried garlic and onions). I keep a container handy, and I also put it in the "house seasoning", a mix of salt, pepper, and garlic - I use that for rubs, etc. Occasionally, I'll use fresh if I'm cooking a pork roast or something like that, but powdered is the norm for me.

I buy minced garlic to keep in the fridge that I use quite often and I have garlic powder that I use quite a bit as well. Never garlic salt. Don't need the extra salt. I use fresh garlic cloves when I make dill pickles, but I rarely have any left over to use for anything else and I never think to buy any at any other time than pickling time.
