How do you dehydrate onion peels?

Published in Food Preservation 1 min read

The video suggests that you dehydrate onion peels by grinding them into a fine powder after they are dried.

Here's a breakdown based on the video:

  1. Collect Onion Peels: Save your onion peels instead of throwing them away.
  2. Dehydrate: (This step is implied but not explicitly shown in the snippet. Typically, this involves using a dehydrator on a low setting, or an oven on a very low setting with the door slightly ajar, until the peels are brittle and dry. You can also air dry them, though this takes longer.)
  3. Grind into Powder: Use a grinder or blender to process the dried peels into a fine powder.
  4. Store Properly: Store the onion peel powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. The powder should stay fresh for several months.

This onion peel powder can then be used as a seasoning, adding flavor to soups, stews, or other dishes.
