The Garlic Lovers Garlic. As close as you can come to picking and mincing garlic fresh from your own garden. Delicious, sweet, strong (1/4 tsp. = 1 clove fresh garlic) and rehydrates very quickly! Perfect for cooking. Sprinkle on chicken, veggies, steak, pasta, and in salad dressing. For incredible garlic bread, mix 2-3 tsp. in 1/3 cup olive oil or melted butter and let stand for a few minutes. Brush on sliced Italian bread, sprinkle with salt if desired, bake at 375° for 10 minutes.
