Onion Juice Powder

CONCENTRATED FLAVOR IN DRY FORMAT

Onion juice powder delivers the full flavor profile of our liquid onion juice concentrates in a convenient, shelf-stable dry format. Ideal for applications requiring low moisture content, extended shelf life, or simplified logistics, this spray-dried ingredient provides authentic onion taste and functionality without the handling challenges of liquid concentrates. Perfect for dry seasoning blends, snack applications, instant soups, and any formulation where liquid addition is impractical or undesirable.

Product Characteristics
Our onion juice powder is produced through advanced spray-drying technology that preserves the complex flavor compounds, natural sugars, and functional properties of fresh onion juice. The result is a free-flowing powder with excellent rehydration properties, consistent particle size distribution, and stable flavor profile throughout shelf life. Unlike dehydrated onion powder made from dried onion pieces, onion juice powder captures the concentrated essence of onion in its most bioavailable form.

Key Functional Benefits
Extremely Low Microbiology: Superior microbiological safety vs. dehydrated onion, critical for applications with strict food safety requirements Instant Dispersion: Dissolves rapidly in aqueous systems without clumping High Flavor Impact: Concentrated onion flavor at low inclusion rates (0.5-3%) Clean Label: Simple ingredient declaration as "onion juice powder" or "onion powder" Shelf Stable: Extended shelf life under proper storage conditions Logistics Simplified: Reduced shipping costs vs. liquid concentrates, ambient storage Manufacturing Friendly: Compatible with standard dry blending equipment

Applications Across Categories
► Seasoning Blends: Delivers authentic onion flavor in spice mixes and rubs
► Snack Foods: Uniform coating on chips, crackers, and extruded snacks
► Instant Soups: Fast rehydration for cup soups and dry soup bases
► Sauce Mixes: Gravy powders, dip mixes, and instant sauce preparations
► Meat Seasonings: Marinades, injection brines, and dry rubs for proteins

Technical Specifications
Our onion juice powder meets rigorous quality standards for moisture content, bulk density, particle size, and microbiological safety. Available in various mesh sizes to suit specific application requirements, from fine powder for uniform dispersion to coarser grades for textural applications. Custom specifications can be developed for unique processing needs or regional regulatory requirements.

Advantages vs. Alternatives
vs. Dehydrated Onion Powder: Onion Juice Powder has superior microbiological safety, better flavor intensity, improved dispersion, cleaner taste profile

Critical Advantage: Microbiological Safety
The spray-drying process creates an ingredient with exceptionally low microbial counts—a game-changing advantage over conventional dehydrated onion powder, which often carries elevated bacteria, yeast, and mold levels from field contamination. This makes onion juice powder the preferred choice for applications with zero-tolerance microbiology requirements: infant foods, clinical nutrition, shelf-stable products without kill steps, and any category where food safety cannot be compromised. Quality assurance teams consistently choose onion juice powder over dehydrated alternatives specifically for this microbiological advantage.

Formulation Guidance
Typical inclusion rates range from 0.5-3% depending on desired onion intensity and application. For seasoning blends, start at 1-2% and adjust to taste. For instant soups and sauces, 2-3% provides robust onion character. Our applications team provides detailed dosage recommendations and assists with flavor optimization for specific product requirements.

Storage & Handling
Store in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight and moisture. Properly sealed packaging maintains quality throughout the stated shelf life. Once opened, reseal promptly to prevent moisture absorption and flavor degradation. Standard precautions for handling food-grade powders apply—minimize dust generation and use appropriate ventilation in production areas.
