Great Value Minced Onion, 17 oz

This is a keep on hand must! Keeps for a long time and I use it in cooking and dips. Easy to rehydrate if you want by placing a tiny bit of water in a bowl, or if using it for a dip add a dollop of cream cheese or sour cream before adding all ingredients for the enhanced flavor.

I bought the 17 oz container of Great Value Minced Onion because I got tired of chopping fresh onions every time I cooked. Some nights you just want to open a jar and move on with your life. The container is a good size—big enough to last months, but not so huge that it takes up half the spice cabinet. When I popped the lid, the smell hit me right away. It's that classic dried onion smell, punchy and savory, but not harsh or stale like some older jars I've bought elsewhere. The pieces are pretty consistent in size, about what you'd expect from minced onion. Not too powdery, not too chunky. I've used it in meatloaf, scrambled eggs, and sprinkled into soups. It rehydrates well in anything with moisture. In a dry rub for chicken, it stays crunchy-ish, which I actually liked. In a pot of beans, you can't even tell it wasn't fresh. My only real complaint is that the shaker top has holes that are a little too small. For minced onion, you really have to shake hard to get enough out. I ended up unscrewing the lid and using a spoon half the time. Also, the flavor is good but not as sharp as fresh onion—so if a recipe calls for raw onion punch, this won't fully replace it. I'm hoping the whole 17 oz stays dry and clump-free over time. So far, no issues. For busy nights, this saves me tears and time.

if you use a great deal of that stallion this is the way to get a great deal by purchasing a larger size and the quality of the product is great for any recipe or addition to any meal

I use a lot of dehydrated onion. I like being able to buy this large container so I don't run out. I'm happy with the quality, but the price seems high.

These minced onion are very versatile. It's great to have on hand and much cheaper than packet soup mix. Throw some bouillon with it, it's very good in sour cream to make dip. Also for gravy, any food really that you want a delicious onion taste.

This is my go too product. When I don't want to peel and cube an onion for use in my food I reach for this so easy to use. Really taste good in any dish being baked or cooked on top of the stove.very flavorful

As a kid at the drive in we had hot dogs with minced onion and relish and I still like them that way. This is so convenient for last minute adds to recipes especially soups and even for a bit of crunch as is on salads and baked potatoes. Great price and free shipping makes this a win-win IMO.

I recommend these if you don't use onions I want because they don't go bad like fresh onions and the taste is just the same

The actual onion flavor of this product is a bit weak when compared to the (much more expensive) name brand. In the future, I plan on purchasing the name brand, simply because I like the extra onion flavor that this product simply doesn't have.

Lately it seems that there is no regard for the condition of the product sent to me. I often get crushed corners, dented cans, or tears in bags. Although most times the product is ok, but I expect the selector or deliverer to select the best as I would if I could.
