McCormick Culinary Granulated Garlic 26 oz — Coarse Grind for Rubs, Sauces & Large-Batch Cooking

McCormick Culinary Granulated Garlic 26 oz is a coarse, sand-textured garlic seasoning that delivers consistent, robust garlic flavor for rubs, sauces, breads and large-batch cooking.

This 26-ounce container of granulated garlic is formulated for culinary professionals and serious home cooks who need dependable garlic flavor without the prep time of fresh cloves. Made from carefully selected, dried garlic that’s coarsely ground, it provides a stronger, more balanced taste than ultra-fine garlic powder and dissolves well in dry blends, sauces and marinades. Use it to streamline production, control flavor intensity, and keep seasoning consistent across plates and batches.

How does this granulated garlic differ from fresh garlic or regular garlic powder?

Granulated garlic sits between fresh garlic and garlic powder in texture and intensity. Its sand-like granules release flavor steadily without the moisture or prep work of fresh cloves and retain more presence than ultra-fine garlic powder in dry rubs and coatings.

• Coarse grind provides texture and sustained flavor release.
• Stronger, more balanced flavor than fine garlic powder.
• Requires no peeling, chopping, or immediate refrigeration.
• 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic approximates one fresh garlic clove, useful for scaling recipes.

What culinary uses work best with McCormick granulated garlic?

This seasoning is extremely versatile across cuisines — from Italian loaves to Middle Eastern marinades. It shines in dry rubs for beef, pork and poultry, lifts sauces and vinaigrettes, and adds reliable garlic notes to baked goods like garlic knots and breadsticks.

• Dry rubs and BBQ blends: adheres to meat and holds flavor during cooking.
• Pan sauces, gravies and marinades: blends evenly when rehydrated.
• Breads and doughs: adds aromatic garlic without wetting dough.
• Bulk kitchen use: one 26 oz container suits high-volume prep.

How should I store and measure it for consistent results?

Keep the container sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and humidity to preserve aroma and potency. Because granulated garlic is more concentrated than fresh garlic, measure by volume carefully and adjust to taste when converting recipes.

• Store in a sealed container at room temperature, away from steam and sunlight.
• Use 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic per fresh garlic clove as a starting ratio.
• Add gradually to sauces or doughs and taste; granulation disperses flavor slowly.
• Shake or stir before measuring to break up any settled clumps.

Will this ingredient work in commercial kitchens and foodservice settings?

Yes — McCormick Culinary products are crafted for foodservice reliability, offering consistent flavor, large-format packaging and predictable performance. The 26-ounce size reduces refill frequency while keeping a single, sanitation-friendly container on the line.

• Bulk-friendly 26 oz container minimizes repackaging and waste.
