What it is

Dried onions are made by removing most of the water content from fresh onions through drying processes like dehydration or freeze-drying. This concentrates their flavor and extends their shelf life. Onions are a common vegetable grown worldwide.

Why it's used

Dried onions are used to add a concentrated onion flavor to a wide variety of foods. They are a convenient way to incorporate onion taste into dry mixes, seasonings, sauces, soups, and processed meats. Manufacturers use them as a flavor enhancer.

Health notes

Organic dried onions are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of nutrients and fiber found in fresh onions. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated onion and its components, but no specific health concerns are typically associated with their consumption in typical food amounts. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects from consuming dried onions in normal dietary patterns.

Allergen info

Onions are not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
