Garlic Powder, Roasted

Garlic is technically a lily and a member of the onion family, and though its white flowers are lovely the tasty bulb is what we care about. Its sweet, savory, sulfur-y flavor is intoxicating.

To make this roasted garlic powder spice we take bulbs of garlic and slowly roast them until deeply caramelized and sticky. Once they smell savory, sweet, and addictive we dry them out and crush the cloves into a silky fine powder. If you don’t have the time to ready roasted garlic this is a fine stand-in. We’ve added this to marinades and rubs, but our favorite application is to fold it into cheddar-packed mornay sauces for mac and cheese. Another fave? A teaspoon of roasted garlic seasoning added to whipped potatoes, the kind where there isn’t a lump to be found and you’ve melted in an entire stick of butter because that’s the kind of thing that makes life worth living.
