How to Make Onion Salt

If you are looking for a delicious condiment to add to pizzas and pastas, make your own onion salt at home. Onion gives a mildly pungent flavor to food and can be added to dishes from nearly every cuisine including Continental, Italian, Mexican and Indian. Use good quality onion powder since it gives the main taste to this condiment. If you do not have onion powder on hand, use one tablespoon of dried onion flakes for each teaspoon of onion powder in the recipe.

Things You'll Need

  • 1 tbsp. onion powder
  • 3 tbsp. salt
  • Spoon
  • Sealable container

Instructions

  1. Combine 1 tbsp. onion powder and 3 tbsp. salt in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.

  2. Transfer the mixture to a sealable container, making sure the lid fits tightly so that the aroma of the onion does not escape.

  3. Store onion salt in a cool and dry place.
