I think I like the flakes better, actually. I microwave-bake bread with onion in it daily and the flakes are nicer.

Minced? Pure madness. Let alone powder.

    My grocery store carries big shakers, all in the same brand, of (in order from finest to most course/granular) powder, minced, chopped, and flakes, all dried. I wasn’t even talking about the jars of not-dried minced.

    Though I bought a jar of minced (“wet”) onion unintentionally due to a mixup the other day and used that instead and it was pretty good. Made my bread taste very sweet compared to the dried version. But the dried version is also good. (The “minced? madness” comment is just a joke, but I do kindof like the bigger flakes.)

    But, yeah. Once it’s baked, the result is pretty moist. I do think the dried onions rehydrate during cooking. (I cook my bread in the microwave for about 3 minutes and 40 seconds.)
