Garlic Minced (Pattu) 1kg

Description

Garlic minced refers to garlic that has been finely chopped into very small pieces. To mince garlic, the garlic bulb is separated into individual cloves by removing excess papery skin. The cloves are then placed on a cutting board and chopped into tiny bits using a chef’s knife. As the knife strikes the garlic, the cloves release oils that contain garlic’s distinctive aroma and flavor compounds. Mincing breaks down cell structure to expose that essence. The more finely garlic is minced, the more surface area is exposed and the more pungent and intense its properties. In culinary terms, minced garlic delivers bursts of uncooked, sharp garlic flavor without any excess texture. It provides a versatile way to add punchy garlic taste to countless savory dishes. A sprinkle of the tiny minced bits can be briefly sautéed in olive oil to mellow and bloom its flavors. The minced garlic is then incorporated into recipes ranging from pasta sauces, pizza toppings, soups, dressings, marinades, roasts, curries and more.
