Onion soup mix is rarely used for onion soup around here. It makes a great dip mix, roast potato topping, roast beef seasoning….There are a ton of recipes calling for this stuff. To save money, buy your dried onions in bulk.
Onion Soup Mix
2/3 cup dried, minced onion
3 tsp parsley flakes
2 tsp onion powder
¼ tsp celery seed (optional)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
Use 3 Tbs in place of a packet of onion soup mix.
I am really surprised to not see any beef bouillon in this recipe! Is it really robust enough in a marinade, or do you add a wet secret ingredient? 🙂
If you prefer you can replace the salt with beef bouillon. It’s pretty good as is though. The only time I had it fail was when I used freeze dried onions instead of traditional dried onions. The freeze dried ones are less dense so have less flavor cup for cup.
