What kind of onions should I use?
You can make use of any kind of onions that you like to make onion powder! Such as Red, yellow, white, sweet, spicy, small, large… but to me I like to use sweeter white or red onions, which will helps to make our onion powder nice and sweet as well. You can buy onions from the market or you take it from your farm, that is if you planted any.
Now back to the main purpose of this post, how to prepare dry onions.
How to prepare onion powder
Gather your onions depending on the quantity you wish to use, make sure you select the good ones and not the already spoilt ones.
Make sure you Peel the outer back of the onions,
then you wash it properly and slice into tiny particles for easy drying.
After slicing the onions transfer it into a food dehydrator to dry the onions.
Incase you don't have a food dehydrator you can sun to dry it, you can make use of the season.
Once you are done drying , pour the dry onions into a grinder or blender to grind into powder.
After grinding this is how it will looks like. So you can save it in a tight container.
