To use, simply open the package and add the desired amount of chopped garlic to your hot pan or pot. It can be sautéed with oil or butter to release its fragrance before adding other ingredients.

It is also suitable for adding to salad dressings or rubs for meats and vegetables.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh garlic cloves, this chopped version has undergone processing. This means its sharp, raw bite is mellowed, and it cooks down more quickly. It offers a more uniform size of garlic pieces compared to hand-minced garlic, ensuring consistent flavor distribution.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining chopped garlic in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best to use the remaining product within a few days to maintain its freshness and flavor. Proper storage will help prevent it from drying out or absorbing other odors from the refrigerator.
