Production & Sourcing
Onion salt is made by combining finely ground dried onions with salt in varying proportions, depending on the desired flavor intensity. The process begins with dehydrating onions to remove moisture, which helps to preserve their flavor and extend shelf life. Once dried, the onions are finely ground into a powder. This onion powder is then mixed with salt to create onion salt.
