3 teaspoons= 1 tablespoon
use 1.5 teaspoon minced garlic for each clove of garlic
Accuracy is important here in your explanation.
If the recipe says to use a head of garlic and a head of garlic is made up of 15 cloves then I'm guessing that you need to use about 22 teaspoons of minced garlic.
In tablespoons that would be equal to approximately 7 tablespoons.

use 3-4 tablespoons to your taste.

Answer 3

That's really a question of taste, not quantity. The minced garlic is probably more powerful.
