💭 Tips For Cooking With Lipton Onion Soup Mix
Onion soup mix is a versatile seasoning blend that can add depth and flavor to a variety of recipes. Here are a few tips and suggestions for cooking with dry Lipton onion soup mix:
- Hold the salt: There's salt in the seasoning blend, so you'll want to cut down on the amount of salt a recipe calls for if using an onion mix. I always recommend adding salt to taste after your recipe is done.
- Onion dip: For a quick onion dip, combine dry onion soup mix with sour cream or Greek yogurt. Chill it in the fridge for at least 1-2 hours before serving for the best flavor.
- Season veggies: A sprinkle of onion soup mix is one of my favorite seasonings for oven-roasted veggies. Just toss them in oil, and add seasoning to taste.
- Marinades: Did you know you can combine onion soup mix with oil and vinegar or lemon juice to create a flavorful marinade for meat? Let your meat marinate for at least an hour (overnight is even better) before cooking.
- Gravy:If you want to give your gravy an extra depth of flavor, whisk in some onion soup mix while it's simmering!
