Dried Onion

• Ways to Use Dehydrated Onions
• Rehydrate dried onions: Dehydrated minced onions can be reconstituted and used like chopped onions in raw and cooked foods. To rehydrate onions, soak one part dried minced onions in two parts warm water until soft, about 20 minutes. Then proceed with your recipe.
• Use onion powder in dry herb mixes: Powdered onion dissolves and combines easily to provide flavor. Onion powder also combines easily with dried herbs and spices to make a shelf-stable mix, such as DIY herb blends, , and rub mixes.
• Add dried onions directly to foods: Add dried onion flakes and minced onions directly to simmering soups and stews. They will reconstitute with the liquid and add onion flavor. Substituting dried onions is the perfect shortcut in the kitchen if you don’t have time for peeling and chopping onions. Here are some ways you can use dried onion flakes, dried minced onions, and onion powder in everyday cooking.
