Cora Onion Salt can be used in a variety of ways to impart flavor. It's excellent as a rub for steaks, chicken, or pork before cooking. You can also mix it into marinades or salad dressings for an added layer of taste. When roasting vegetables like potatoes, carrots, or broccoli, a sprinkle of onion salt before they go into the oven can significantly enhance their natural sweetness and savory notes.

How it differs from similar foods
Compared to plain salt, onion salt provides a distinct onion aroma and taste. It differs from onion powder by including salt, offering a two-in-one seasoning solution. The salt content also helps to draw out moisture from ingredients, aiding in browning.
Who it is for
Home cooks and professional chefs alike can benefit from the convenience and flavor of onion salt.
How to keep the rest
To maintain its freshness, store Cora Onion Salt in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can cause clumping and diminish its flavor over time.
