FAQ | Food Grade Kiln Dehydrated Garlic Flakes

1. What are kiln dehydrated garlic flakes?

Kiln dehydrated garlic flakes are natural food-grade seasonings produced from fresh garlic through cleaning, slicing and low-temperature kiln drying. They retain strong garlic flavor, pure color and complete nutrition, widely used as food additives in food processing.

2. What is the difference between kiln dried and ordinary sun-dried garlic flakes?

Kiln low-temperature dehydration ensures stable temperature, less color browning, lower moisture, fewer impurities and stronger aroma. Sun-dried garlic is easily affected by weather, with unstable color and higher bacteria risk. Kiln dried grade is more suitable for formal food export.
