Quick Tip #1 - Minced Garlic in a Pinch

If you do not have fresh garlic or the minced kind that comes in a jar, use the dehydrated garlic- rehydrated. Put in a small container, even a washed out baby food jar, cover with cold water, tighten lid and put into your refrigerator. I keep a jar that had the minced garlic in it to start with. It is wonderful thing to have in case of an emergency. About 1/2 of a teaspoon can equal 1 clove of fresh garlic. Plus it can be economical if you get a big container of the dehydrated garlic. And I find no difference in the taste of my food.
