How do you make dried garlic flakes?
Making dried garlic is a great way to use up garlic cloves that may otherwise go bad. First, you should peel the garlic, then thinly slice it. Place the thin slices on a sheet pan (cookie sheet) or any other oven-safe pan. Place them in a preheated 150 degree oven. Keep a close eye on them, and turn them fairly often. You will notice when the liquid is cooked out. They will darken some, and become much lighter (in weight). Remove from the oven when done and allow to cool. Once completely cooled, you may store them in an air-tight container just as they are, or they can be processed further, making minced garlic (by chopping), granulated garlic (by running in the food processor a few quick times), or garlic powder (by completely through the food processor, until the consistency of fine powder). Any of these methods' final product should be stored in an air-tight container. They will keep their flavor for up to a year. After a year, they are still safe to eat, but will slowly lose their flavor. A way to extend the shelf life is by storing them in an air-tight container in the freezer.
