Dehydrated onions are a great way to save money and add flavor to cooking. Not only do they have an incredibly long shelf life, but they’re also perfect for adding complex flavor to your recipes without having to chop fresh onions. Let’s explore how you can use them in your cooking.
Using dehydrated onions
Since dehydrated onions are already chopped, all you need to do is measure out the amount you need for your recipe without any of the tears associated with chopping from fresh. No more moldy onions in the pantry; the dehydrated form will last a long time if stored properly. To rehydrate dehydrated onions, just add hot water or stock and let them sit for 5–10 minutes until they are soft enough for cooking or using as you would a fresh onion. They can also be used directly in dry form by sprinkling onto salad
