Onion Powder
I figured id try making my own onion powder.. You can yeild ALOT more powder with dehydrating a batch of onions then buying a tiny 2oz jar, and its cheaper too.:D
I tried two techniques for drying them.. blanching and chopping them up.. both work fine for dehydrating.
The blanch meathod reduces the smell alot while dehydrating and seems to produce a brighter onion powder :)

Onion Chutney Onion Chutney
This requested recipe of thick sauce is usually served with variety of dishes such as Indian curry, naan and paratha breads, samosa, and rice.I made this for some guests to serve it with cheese and crackers.Sterilize a jar in boiling water. Fill the jar while the chutney is still hot and close the lid. Turn the jar upside down and keep it in a cool place. This creates vacuum state, and it can be preserved for few months.A slightly sweeter taste is recommended, so add some sugar. Honey could be fine too. Recipe by Plabar

Easy Onion Soup Easy Onion Soup
I love the sweetness of onions.Cut onions against the grain to break the fiber. If you don't do this, the onion will not have a soft texture.It burns easily when you sauté with butter, so please stir constantly.If you put bread and cheese on top of the soup and brown it in the oven, it will turn into onion gratin soup!
