About Spices, onion powder
Onion powder is dehydrated onion ground to a fine powder — a pantry staple that delivers onion's savory depth instantly, evenly and without the chopping or the tears. It's a backbone ingredient in spice rubs, seasoning salts and countless processed foods.
As concentrated dried onion it appears nutritious by weight, but it's used by the pinch, so its real contribution is flavor rather than nutrition. It carries traces of the sulfur compounds and minerals of fresh onion, much diminished by drying.
Convenient and consistent, onion powder is ideal for seasoning blends and dishes where you want onion flavor without the texture — a quiet workhorse of the spice rack.
