Recipe story

Onion powder is one of our specialties too :) All our recipes are homemade. It is well known that onion powder adds a distinctive flavor to meat and chicken dishes.. Make it yourselves

Ingredients

  • 4 large onions
  • Note:
  • You can leave the onions under the sun to dry.. This will give us a white powder after grinding.. But if using the oven, the powder will be a little darker, though that does not affect the taste
