French Onion Soup Mix
8 tsp dried onion flakes
4 tsp beef stock powder (I use a vegetarian "beef-style" stock with no additives)
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp celery salt
pinch sugar
pinch white pepper
* Mix ingredients together thoroughly and store in an airtight container or foil package. Keeps for up to 6 months. It is the equivalent of 1 packet of soup mix.

This is a fantastic recipe thanks for sharing :)
This sounds really good. Can't wait to try it!
Now that is useful, thank you.
Hi ladies,
I'm glad you can find some use for it :-)
Cheers, Julie
That's brilliant - I have a secret, guilty lust for french onion soup, but I know that packet stuff is nasty. I am going to try this out this very week.
how much water do you use
Hi Anonymous,
Honestly, I've no idea as I always use it dry in recipe mixes, rather than as a soup. Since it is the equivalent of a packet you would add the same amount of water, which is generally around 2 cups? Sorry I couldn't be more specific.
Cheers, Julie
Oh wow, thanks for this..
a question though, do you use commercial onion flakes and powder. We are thinking of buying a food dehydrator in the near future and I have seen where you can dry out chopped onions (for flakes?) and even crush the dried onion to make a powder. Sounds like a way to preserve all our excess onions as a lot of the onions I use are in dishes that dried onions would work in.
Hi Norma,
YES, home dried onions would be awesome in it! Much nicer than bought ones :-)
Cheers, Julie
Wow - thanks so much for figuring this one out and then sharing - I just got my first crock pot, and while I am all for quick and easy, I really hate giving my family or myself the junk that is in those packets of mix - especially when I have all of the ingrediants you listed sitting in my cupboard and it's nothing to toss them in with everything else! So many thank you's from Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA!!
Hi Meg, my pleasure!
Hi Julie
Just wondering which beef stock powder you use?
ta!
Hi Kylee,
I use the Massel brand.
Cheers,

Thanks for this! My daughter and I have Celiacs disease and cannot use the dry onion soup mix but I really miss using it in roast! You've made my day lol I will be making and using it tonight!! Do you mind if I link back here when I post the recipe on my gluten free blog? Guaranteed, many people who have to lead a gluten free life will appreciate it!!
Hello Kaisun,
No, I don't mind at all - I hope you all enjoy it!
Cheers, Julie
Hi Julie,
I really love your recipe for dry onion soup mix; you said you use a vegetarian "beef-style" stock powder.
What is the name of yours so I can try and find it on the web? I live far from you, Michigan, U.S.A and probably couldn't find it locally. Thanks so much for your quick response!! could you email me - angelikakopek@mac.com
Thanks and have a terrific weekend!
Angelika :)
