Garlic Clove Conversions Minced garlic – Use 1/2 teaspoon of jarred minced garlic to replace a single clove of garlic. Garlic flakes – Also called dried minced garlic or dehydrated garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic flakes replaces a single garlic clove. Granulated garlic – Use 1/4 teaspoon of granulated garlic in place of each clove. Garlic powder – Use just 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder in place of each clove, as it’s much more potent. Garlic salt (I don't recommend using garlic salt for this recipe) – Use 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt in place of each clove. This adds an extra 3/8 teaspoon of salt to a recipe. To convert a fresh clove of garlic to tsp, simply use one teaspoon of minced garlic for every clove requested in your recipe. It is a one-to-one!
