It wouldn't be recommended unless you're looking for a really salty taste. Keep in mind that garlic salt is mostly salt with just some garlic flavor to it. If the recipe calls for salt, you might want to reduce or eliminate it if you're going to use garlic salt in place of garlic. If the recipe doesn't call for salt, garlic salt is probably not the best option.
Use the powder and not the granulated garlic.
1/8 tsp garlic powder = 1 clove
2 cloves of garlic may be equal to 1/2 tablespoons.
a quarter of a cup
Appx. 2 teaspoons, but nothing substitutes well for fresh garlic and the garlic powder flavor can't compete with fresh garlic.
A substitute for a shallot might be a combination of onion and garlic, approximately 2/3 onion and 1/3 garlic. For example: For one shallot clove substitute 2/3 teaspoon very finely minced onion and 1/3 teaspoon very finely minced garlic.
Onion salt tastes like "salty onion". Onion powder just tastes like "onion". I use both onion and garlic powder a lot, but have never used either onion salt or garlic salt, so I can use salt independently (control the amount).
No. Crushing results in a fine pulp. Mincing gives you finely diced pieces. The difference shows up when you cook it in oil. Since crushing results a more moist product, it will make the oil spatter more than with the minced garlic. Also, when mixing garlic into other ingredients, crushed garlic distributes more evenly.
1 clove of garlic is equivalent to 1 teaspoon of chopped garlic 1 teaspoon of chopped garlic is equivalent to one-half teaspoon of minced garlic. So, one-half teaspoon of (drained) jarred minced garlic is equivalent to a garlic clove. Here are some other useful conversions: 1 garlic bulb = about 10 cloves of garlic. 1 clove of garlic = 1 teaspoon chopped garlic 1 clove of garlic = 1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon of garlic flakes 1/4 teaspoon of granulated garlic 1/2 teaspoon of garlic juice
Substitute 1/4 teaspoon granulated or powdered garlic for each garlic clove.
Granulated granulated garlic is not the same as garlic salt. Granulated garlic is just garlic that has been dried, processed and granulated. Garlic salt is processed , dried garlic mixed with sea salt or other salts.
2 heads of garlic=approx. 10 tsp minced or just over 3 TBS.
