Dried ginger powder is commonly used in spices and masalas, curries and stews. Other than adding flavor, adding a pinch of this spice in rajma and chhole masala can help prevent excess gas in the stomach. A cup of masala chai is great for common cold or a sore throat. Garlic powder is widely used around the world as a seasoning or condiment. As a condiment, it is used for flavouring mayonnaise and tomato ketchup or sauces, salad dressings, gravies, stews, spaghetti, chutneys, pickles, curried dishes, etc. Add Tomato Powder to mayonnaise for a zesty, creamy sandwich spread. Add Tomato Powder with herbs to cream cheese to make a spread for bread, crackers, or fresh veggies. For decadent scrambled eggs, rehydrate Tomato Powder with cream (instead of water) and add to eggs just before they are finished cooking. You can sprinkle it onto popcorn, stir it into slaw, or create a salad dressing without adding the moisture and volume of tomato paste that it would take to infuse a dish with flavor. You can use onion powder in any recipe that calls for fresh onion. One tablespoon of onion powder is equal to a half cup of chopped fresh onion. It’s easy! Sprinkle the onion powder over the surface of the dish and stir. Soups and stews are perfect candidates for onion powder. From vegetable, meat and bean soups to any style of chili or beef stew to gumbo or chowder, pure onion powder delivers bold onion flavor and aroma. Onion powder is an essential seasoning for ground meat for burgers, meatloaf, chili, skillet suppers and more. We like to add a teaspoon per pound of ground beef, but feel free to experiment! Dry rubs are a natural for onion powder. For pork ribs, we start with onion powder, and then add garlic powder, cumin, thyme leaves, parsley flakes and red pepper or cayenne. Let the ribs sit for an hour or so before you roast or grill them to soak up the delicious flavor.
