About Crushed garlic

Crushed garlic is a versatile cooking ingredient derived from fresh garlic cloves, which are finely minced or ground to release their robust flavor and aroma. Originating from Central Asia, garlic is a staple in numerous cuisines, including Mediterranean, Asian, and Middle Eastern dishes. Its strong, pungent taste makes it ideal for enhancing savory recipes such as sauces, marinades, soups, and stir-fries. Nutritionally, crushed garlic is rich in antioxidants, vitamins B6 and C, manganese, and selenium, contributing to immunity support and heart health. Additionally, garlic contains allicin, a compound linked to anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits. While its flavor is an asset, garlic is typically used in small portions, making it a low-calorie option. Some individuals may experience digestive discomfort if consumed in excess or raw. Overall, crushed garlic is a flavorful addition to meals, offering both culinary and health advantages when used in moderation.
