Onion powder is a seasoning made from finely ground dried onions.

It is an ancient condiment, likely originating in Egypt or India, that has been used for centuries by many cultures.

In the 1800s, it became popular in the United States for its convenience and long shelf life. Today, onion powder is widely used as a seasoning for snacks, salads, and other dishes. It is also a key ingredient in many spice blends, such as garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Cajun seasoning.

Onion powder is made by slicing and then drying onions, which are ground into a fine, powdery consistency. It contains no additives and is a source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C and potassium.
