GARLIC-there are actually many different types. The huge ones called elephant garlic are quite mild.

Anything in a jar has to be cooked first to kill micro organisms so the taste will be different than fresh.

There is powdered garlic-I find it sticks together no matter what you do.

I used to use minced dried garlic. It keeps like forever and it works well in cooked dishes. I've not seen it offered for sale anywhere around here.
