Maharajah's Choice Onion Powder is made from dehydrated onions, giving it a concentrated flavour that pairs well with many foods. Onion powder has an intense flavour which makes it a good substitute for salt in many recipes, including burgers, salads and soups. Onion powder can be used in anything that desires an onion flavour in, often even when using fresh onions, as the onion powder lays a subtle foundation of onion flavour while the fresh onions add strong onion hits.
