Used in dishes like sauces, marinades, and stews without large chunks, differing from minced (finely chopped) by its smoother consistency and more intense, immediate flavour release. It’s made by pressing cloves with the flat of a knife or a garlic press, allowing it to blend seamlessly into food for bold, infused taste.
Texture: Soft, smooth, paste-like, with no large bits.
Flavor: Intense, pungent, and immediate due to maximum allicin release.
