Lawry's Coarse Ground Garlic Salt with Parsley
What it is
This is a seasoning blend that combines the pungent flavor of garlic with the savory taste of salt. It also includes dried parsley flakes, which add a mild herbal note and a touch of green color to dishes. The coarse grind means the salt crystals and garlic pieces are larger than in fine-ground versions, providing a more noticeable texture and a slower release of flavor. It is a convenient way to add seasoned garlic flavor to many types of food.
How people cook with it
This seasoning is a versatile addition to many meals, offering a quick way to enhance flavor.
- Sprinkled on roasted vegetables
- Mixed into marinades
- Used as a finishing salt
- Added to dips and sauces
You can use this seasoning blend in a variety of ways. Sprinkle it directly onto meats, poultry, or fish before cooking to create a flavorful crust. It works well when tossed with vegetables before roasting or grilling, adding both saltiness and garlic aroma. For a quick flavor boost, stir it into butter for garlic bread or mix it into salad dressings and dips. It can also be used as a finishing touch after a dish is prepared, adding a final layer of taste and visual appeal with the parsley flecks.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to plain garlic salt, this blend includes parsley, which contributes a subtle herbaceousness and visual interest. The coarse grind offers a more pronounced texture and a less immediate, more sustained flavor release than finely ground seasonings. It provides a more complex taste profile than either garlic salt or dried parsley used separately.
Who it is for
Home cooks and professional chefs alike use this blend to quickly season a wide range of dishes.
How to keep the rest
To maintain its freshness and flavor, store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture from entering, which could cause clumping and reduce its potency over time. Proper storage helps preserve the aromatic qualities of the garlic and parsley.
