How big is a clove of garlic.?

Question: When I lived in Australia the cloves were HUGE. Back home in Europe they can be tiny. How can you know what is meant by 'one clove of garlic' ? I'll make it simple. Since cloves of garlic vary in size, when a recipe says 'one clove of garlic' what size do they mean?

Answer: Garlic Equivalents 1 head or bulb of garlic = (about) 10 cloves. 1 small garlic clove = 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic = 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder = 1/4 teaspoon garlic juice = 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt 1 small garlic clove yields 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic 1 medium garlic clove yields 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1 large garlic clove yields 2 teaspoons minced garlic 1 extra-large garlic clove yields 1 tablespoon minced garlic
