Products classified under HTS 0712.90.40.40
Dried Minced Garlic Flakes
Dried minced garlic flakes are produced by slicing, drying, and mincing fresh garlic bulbs, resulting in small irregular pieces suitable for culinary use. They fall under HTS 0712.90.4040 as dried garlic that is broken or in powder form but not further prepared with additives like oil or salt. This classification applies to whole, cut, sliced, broken, or powdered dried garlic unfit for immediate consumption without rehydration.
Dried Garlic Powder
Dried garlic powder is made by dehydrating and finely grinding garlic cloves into a fine powder, commonly used as a seasoning. It is classified under HTS 0712.90.4040 for dried garlic in powder form, not further prepared beyond drying and grinding. This ensures it remains a basic dried vegetable product.
Dehydrated Garlic Granules
Dehydrated garlic granules consist of dried garlic pieces roughly 1-2mm in size, ideal for rubs and marinades. Under HTS 0712.90.4040, they qualify as dried garlic that is broken or sliced, without further preparation. This form preserves the vegetable's natural state for rehydration in cooking.
Dried Sliced Garlic Chips
Dried sliced garlic chips are thin, uniform slices of dehydrated garlic used for frying or direct seasoning. Classified in HTS 0712.90.4040 as sliced dried garlic, not further prepared, they retain their vegetable character. Ideal for gourmet cooking without immediate edibility.
Air-Dried Garlic Pieces
Air-dried garlic pieces are irregularly broken segments from dehydrated garlic bulbs, used in spice blends. HTS 0712.90.4040 covers this as broken dried garlic, ensuring no further processing occurs. Perfect for bulk import into food manufacturing.
