Frequently Asked Questions
for our Dehydrated Red Onion
How is Dehydrated Red Onion different from White and Pink?
How is Dehydrated Red Onion different from White and Pink?
Red onion is the most pungent and spicy of the three. It contains anthocyanins, which give it the deep purple/red color. While White is preferred for aesthetic neutrality (no color bleeding) and Pink for sweetness, Red is used when a strong, traditional "onion" kick and visible color specks are desired in the food product.
Why does Red Onion Powder sometimes look grey?
Why does Red Onion Powder sometimes look grey?
This is natural. The deep purple skin of the red onion, when ground with the white flesh, blends to create a pinkish-grey or purplish-grey powder. It is not an indication of poor quality but rather proof that genuine red onion with skin was used.
