Production & Sourcing
At Source86, we make sure that you get the best raw ingredients the market has to offer. Here’s a look into how Air-Dried Onion Powder is made:
Harvesting:
Onions are harvested when the foliage begins to dry and the bulbs reach maturity. This usually occurs in late summer or early autumn, depending on the onion variety and growing region.
Cleaning and Preparation:
The harvested onions are carefully cleaned to remove dirt, debris, and outer layers of skin. The tops and roots are trimmed, leaving behind the firm bulbs.
Slicing and Drying:
The cleaned onions are sliced into thin, uniform pieces. The onion slices are then spread out in a single layer on drying trays or screens.
Drying:
The sliced onions are placed in a well-ventilated area with low humidity. The onions are left to air dry naturally, allowing the moisture within the slices to evaporate gradually.
Dehydration:
As the onions dry, their moisture content decreases, resulting in a dehydrated state. This dehydration process helps preserve the flavor and nutrients while extending the shelf life of the onions.
Grinding:
Once the onions are fully dried and dehydrated, they are carefully ground into a fine powder. And you have your Air-Dried Onion Powder!
