Fresh garlic's chill cousin who shows up dried, dependable, and never makes you cry.
means Dried, ground garlic sold as a fine tan powder, used as a convenient seasoning that delivers garlic flavor without peeling, mincing, or tears.
from A plain compound of "garlic" and "powder." "Garlic" is solidly Old English garleac, from gar "spear" plus leac "leek" — literally "spear-leek," named for its pointed cloves and leaves. "Powder" arrived later through Old French poudre, from Latin pulvis, "dust." The pairing itself is a modern grocery-shelf term, born once drying and grinding turned the spear-leek into shelf-stable dust.
