Egyptian Garlic Flakes

Egyptian dehydrated garlic (Allium sativum) from the Nile Delta is supplied as flakes, granules and powder. The three forms are produced from the same dried material and differ in particle size, which is the specification that matters: it governs dosing accuracy, rehydration behaviour and how the product performs in a dry blend.

Flakes are specified where visible pieces are wanted or where slower rehydration suits the application. Granules are the general-purpose form for seasoning and blending. Powder is supplied where the buyer's process requires it, and benefits from moisture-barrier packing since dehydrated garlic is hygroscopic and will cake if it takes up water.

Applications include seasoning and spice blends, meat and sausage manufacture, sauce, soup and convenience-food production, snack seasoning, and food service. Buyers frequently specify a screen-based particle size distribution rather than a nominal description, which is the more reliable basis for comparing offers.

The Nile Delta's fertile alluvial soils and dry harvest window suit the crop, and controlled dehydration is what preserves colour and pungency. Material passes a cleaning sequence including magnetic separation, and each shipment carries a lot-specific certificate of analysis. Specifications are available upon request and can be tailored to buyer requirements, including particle size and packing format. FOB Alexandria with the complete export documentation set.
