What Are Onion Flakes?

Onion flakes are made by slicing fresh onions and drying them at low temperatures to remove moisture while preserving flavour and aroma. The result is a lightweight, crisp product that rehydrates quickly and releases bold onion taste during cooking.

Unlike onion powder or granules, flakes offer a textural presence in dishes, providing a satisfying bite and visible appeal. They’re especially valued in long-simmered recipes where rehydration allows them to blend into sauces, soups, and broths with ease.
