Here are a few delicious ways to make the most of your preserved onions:
- Add a teaspoon to soups, sauces, or gravies for a deep, savory flavor.
- Mix with garlic powder, salt, and herbs for a homemade seasoning blend.
- Sprinkle on roasted vegetables or meats.
- Combine with yogurt or olive oil to make quick marinades.
💡 Bonus Tip: You can even make onion salt by mixing 3 parts onion powder with 1 part fine salt — a perfect kitchen shortcut!
⚠️ Important Tips for Success
- Always ensure the powder is completely dry before storing it. Even slight moisture can cause clumping or mold.
- Use a clean, dry spoon each time you take some powder out.
- If you notice any moisture, spread the powder on a tray and re-dry it for 30 minutes at low heat.
