Ingredients
 

  • ¾ cup dried minced onions (onion flakes; found in the spice aisle)
  • ⅓ cup beef bouillon powder (see notes)
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon celery seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • ⅛ teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Chop or grind the celery seeds to break them up a little. (I find this easiest to do with my chef's knife.)
  2. Mix all ingredients. Some brands of bouillon may be a bit clumpy, In this case, break up the clumps.
  3. One packet of the purchased mix equals 1 ounce or about ¼ cup of this mix. Divide into individual zipper top bags or small jars, and store in a cupboard or other cool, dark place.

Notes

  • I use Herb-Ox granulated beef bouillon. If needed, Herb-Ox has a sodium-free option and organic options are available.
