Granulated onion is a dried and finely ground form of onion, offering the rich flavor and aroma of fresh onions in a convenient, shelf-stable format. It is made by dehydrating fresh onions and pulverizing them into small coarse granules, preserving their essential oils and nutrients. Commonly used in a variety of cuisines, from American barbecue rubs to Mediterranean dishes, granulated onion provides a versatile way to enhance savory recipes without the need for chopping or peeling. Nutritionally, it retains some of the beneficial compounds found in fresh onions, such as antioxidants and sulfur-containing compounds that may support immune health and reduce inflammation. It is naturally low in calories, fat, and sodium, making it a healthy addition when used in moderation. However, some packaged varieties may include additives, so reading the label is important for ensuring purity. Granulated onion is a must-have for any spice rack!
