What it is

Concentrated onion juice is made by extracting the liquid from onions and then removing most of the water. This process intensifies the onion flavor and aroma. It is used as a flavoring ingredient.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add concentrated onion juice to foods to provide a strong onion flavor without the texture or appearance of chopped onions. It is commonly found in savory products like sauces, soups, processed meats, and condiments.

Health notes

Concentrated onion juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. It is a natural food ingredient and is not associated with significant health concerns when consumed in typical amounts. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated onion and its extracts, but specific evaluations for concentrated juice may vary.

Allergen info

Onions are not among the FDA's nine major food allergens. Concentrated onion juice is not a source of gluten.
