Ha! But my kids might disagree with you!

Does any one know? I need to finish cooking supper before my 3 sleeping beauties wake up.

My mother sometimes goes to Levanas cooking class (she has a restaurant in nyc) and she says to NEVER use garlic powder. We don't listen of course. When my mother came to visit me, she brought me some Smile .

Do you use garlic that has been left unpeeled overnight? Because it's a problem with garlic powder, and I never thought of it for ages. In EY, the Eida Chareidis has a hechsher on pureed garlic, mixed with a little oil and salt so that it's considered a salad and can be kept.

Interesting qu, shalhevet.
We don't use onion left out, but I never thought about garlic. The garlic powder I just used is garlic only, nothing alse added. Because it's so finely processed, maybe it's not a problem? I don't know, I'll have to ask!!

I used garlic powder for a long time, and also never thought of it, though I never would have used garlic I had peeled myself and left overnight (the problems are onion, garlic and eggs). So we asked and were told that, yes, it's a problem. But maybe other LORs pasken differently. Then I noticed that the Eida does not give a hechsher on garlic powder, and that it sells this pureed stuff - refrigerated or frozen.

What do you mean? Before they add the oil and salt? They write in their kashrus guide that that's the reason why they add it, so I'm sure they add it the same day.

For that hechsher, fine. I'm wondering if the spices that I see in the dollar store, for example, with a different hechsher, are careful about that.

I'll bet they aren't.
