Never Waste Your Garlic Tops Again! Green Garlic Powder Recipe

In preparation for my Apocalypse Grow survival challenge, I HAVE to have some spices and flavorings. but only if I grow them myself. I had to clear a bed out, so I harvested some garlic early and turned it into a green garlic powder. Clean, wash, and dice garlic into small, even chunks. Slice bulbs in halves or quarters for even dehydration. I dehydrated at 170F for 9 hours, then blended finely. I would recommend a coffee grinder if you want it to be a pure powder texture. This was my first time learning how to make garlic powder and I'm already feeling like a homesteading boss: P. It's pretty easy, though I could use a dehydrator in the future. Let me know in the comments if you have a better method!

Another great tip for the never-ending greens is to start a garlic clove in a shot glass half filled with water. I usually fit 2-3 in 1 shot glass. Be sure to keep the roots submerged in water and leave on a window sill for few days and the cloves will start rooting and breaking through the top with greens (scapes. Once they start to green I transplant them to soil. I usually have up to 10 in a pot on my windowsill. This works with onions too. Keep the soil nice and moist but not soaked. I use a spray bottle only but will spray the greens and soil through the day.
They will do just fine in water alone but I found that after awhile the flavour starts to become much milder if you dont get them into soil.

Amazing, thank you first for letting me know I passed over those funny-looking scallions too many times! Second, I dont have a dehydrator yet and I was trying to think of a way to dehydrate some things (Moringa, microgreens) without going downstairs and putting a rack in my car windshield! Food dehydrator is definitely in my list!

FYI you can make an easy solar dehydrator with a cookie sheet with a cooling rack set in it, and a pyrex casserole pan turned upside down over it. Definitely not a lot of space, but it's great for doing a small batch of cherries or tomatoes. I find it usually takes about 2 days.

I grow aquaponically with no media other than water. Often if I dont sell all my products pr have bumper crop, I do the same thing; but I have a food dryer. I then produce blends of microgreen salts, dried soup stocks and use the dried roots as fish food powder.

I have found one of the simple things in life even though it has a larger up front cost I like using a plug in dehydrator as it will allow you to get lower in temp and greater control at those lower temperatures.

I bet your house smelled amazing. You should try making your own cayenne pepper powder, it's the real deal. I make it every year and it lasts forever, but blows the store-bought out of the park!

In Indonesia, we use that just as it is, chopped them finely and garnish them on top of any food, mostly soup cause the aroma comes out nicely with hot water.

Hope you enjoyed this powder recipe! I always wonder what to do with my garlic tops, and this is a smoky, delicious, and flavorful way to make use of them: )
reply

I really like the idea of drying the stems of the garlic. That would also work for onions. No more buying dried onions or garlic for me. WOW!

Hello, just watch it now. I want to grow some garlic and use the leaves just what you did. But how many months the powder will expire? Thanks

Epic Gardening, I dyedrate my herbs in a glass open jar in the back of the fridge shelf! It works amazingly! Just put them dry in the jar.

Thank you sir for the confidence you have helped me achieve in gardening. You inspire me to become a better plant owner. :)
