Tone's Minced Onion is domestically grown. This mechanically dehydrated product is uniformly minced with a consistent color and flavor. The flavor is very similar in characteristics to garlic, but is much milder and much sweeter. Serving Suggestions Use in foods where a prominent onion texture is desired, as in marinated vegetables, pasta salads, vegetable or meat soups, Italian or tomato based sauces, taco meat or lasagna. Add to casseroles, salad dressings, marinades or meat rubs. Rehydrate for 10 minutes in twice the volume of water; drain. If used in moist foods like sauces, soups, or stews, rehydration is not required. One pound of Tone's Minced Onion equals 8 lbs. of raw, prepared onions. 2 tablespoons of Tone's Minced Onions equal 1/3 cup fresh minced onion, or 1 medium chopped onion.
