Onion Soup Mix (Homemade) • Make your Own! Tips & Tricks #8

If you opened my pantry 30 years ago, you’d see a variety of foil and paper packets. They could’ve been soup, sauce, rice or dried vegetable mixes. I stopped buying most of them and slowly started making my own. Many years later, I might have bought one here and there when I felt lazy – yes it happens to me as well… lol! The only packets that I still buy is a dry vegetable mix that I use for my Pumpernickel Spinach Dip and for another recipe that I’ll be featuring in the near future…
 
The first packet that I eliminated from my pantry was Onion Soup Mix! My aunt was making hers and I followed in her foot steps by doing the same. Not only was it not as salty as the store bought mix (the ingredients are controlled to your liking) but the taste was also fuller and more flavorful. This Onion Soup Mix is no longer premade but freshly homemade! It only takes 5 minutes “max” and at a fraction of the cost…
 
Here’s what you’ll need for this recipe and it’s the equivalent of one package of Onion Soup Mix.
 
– 1/4 cup dehydrated chopped onion
– 2 tbsp. instant beef bouillon
– 1/4 tsp. onion powder
– 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
– 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
 
This recipe is great for Meatloaf and other casserole dishes as well as for chip dip. Making Onion Soup Mix from scratch couldn’t be easier! No need to rush to the store next time you need some, plus it’s fresher, seasoned to your liking and more economical!
Bon Appétit!
 
FOOTNOTE: Chip Dip: Just mix it with 200g or 3/4 cup of light sour cream and add more sour cream to taste. If there’s leftover dip the next day and it’s too thick, add a tsp. of milk at a time until it’s smooth and creamy again!
