Ingredients
  

Dry Onion Soup Mix
  • 1/4 cup Dried minced onion flakes
  • 2 tablespoons Beef bouillon granules or powdered beef bouillon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Method
 

Step-by-Step
  1. Add the dried minced onion flakes, beef bouillon, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and ground black pepper to a small bowl or clean jar.
  2. Stir with a small whisk or spoon, or secure the lid and shake the jar, until the bouillon and seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the onion flakes.
  3. Transfer the mixture to an airtight container if you used a bowl, then label it with the name and date. Store it in a cool, dry pantry and shake before each use.
  4. Use approximately 3 tablespoons as a starting substitute for one commercial packet, adjusting to taste according to the saltiness of your bouillon and the recipe.

Notes

Low-sodium bouillon gives you better control over salt. Additional salt is generally unnecessary because beef bouillon is usually the primary source of salt. Store airtight and use within about 6 months for best flavor.
