Drying of garlic (var. Yamuna safed-3, G-282) was carried out in shade drying (room temperature 32oC), oven drying (60±5oC, 8-10 h), microwave drying (800 W, 7 minute), and; solar drying (16-18 h). Garlic cloves were blanched in boiling water for 10-15 seconds followed by dipping in 0.2 percent potassium meta bi sulphite (KMS) for five minutes at room temperature, This sample was called a treated sample.
