Onion Powder

Condiments

Ingredients

  • Fresh Onions

Method

  1. Wash the onions, and discard papery skin.
  2. Slice onions into ⅛- to ¼-inch pieces and place on dehydrator racks without overlapping.
  3. Dry onions in a food dehydrator on 37 to 54°C until completely dry. The slices should snap and crack crisply in half, and not bend.
  4. Alternatively, to dry onions in the oven, spread them in a thin layer on a baking pan covered with parchment paper. Bake at 60°C until they are completely crunchy dry.
  5. Once fully dried, place the onions in a blender or food processor and pulse until the desired powder coarseness is achieved.
  6. Transfer the ground onion powder into an airtight container and use within one year.
