The main advantages of dehydrated onions are that they are easy to store, being lighter in weight
and smaller in bulk than fresh or other processed onions, they are cheap to pack compared with
canned goods, they do not require refrigerated storage as do frozen onions and the contents of a
container can be used some time after opening provided they are not rehydrated. The newest
dehydration process appears to be a variation on the air-drying process and is based on the principle
of vapour pressure differentials, using air circulated around the onions at relatively low
temperatures to ‘sweat’ the water from the food. It is reported that this method of dehydration
prevents a crust forming on the outside of the pieces of food and that the low temperatures have less
effect on flavour, texture, colour and vitamin contents of onion than do the higher temperatures used
in conventional hot air-drying methods.
