I don't have any cloves, but I have a ton of powder! I always end up using too much or too little.How much garlic powder should i use in place of 3 cloves of garlic?
i don't measure garlic.. I add it till it taste good... i don't measure.. However, I have been cooking since I was 12, so i don't have a need to measure anymore. you can always add but you can not take away.





start with 1/2 teaspoon per clove. but add it 1/2 teaspoon at a time.. Powder seems to be stronger sometimes than the actual cloves. taste after each addition. If you have added 1 1/2 teaspoon and it still does not taste right, add a little more.. stir taste and continue doing so till it is correct.How much garlic powder should i use in place of 3 cloves of garlic?
1 tsp fresh = 1 clove garlic





But since dry herbs/spices are 3x stronger than fresh, you will only need 1 tsp of dry powder to replace 3 cloves, or 3 tsp. of fresh.



rule of thumb





6 cloves = 1 teaspoon





thus, 3 cloves would be 1/2 teaspoon
1/2 tablespoon
1/2 tablespoon
