Avoid the nasty’s found in packet products by making your own soup mix. This is great for soup, flavouring casseroles and is also excellent for seasoning roasts.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup dried onion flakes
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp celery salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp turmeric

Method:

Mix all ingredients together and store in a glass jar.
Use a 1/4 cup to 2 cups of stock to make soup. Add some caramelised onions to your soup for extra flavour.
Make french onion dip by mixing a couple of tbsp with sour cream. Let sit for an hour or two in the fridge to allow the flavours develop. Add more soup mix depending on your taste.
