Onion Powder
Onion powder weighs 115g per cup. One tablespoon equals roughly one medium onion in flavor. It is useful in dry rubs, spice blends, and recipes where you want onion flavor without the texture or moisture of raw onion. Onion powder clumps aggressively in humidity — add a few grains of rice to the container to absorb moisture. Granulated onion is coarser and works better in rubs. Store in a sealed container and replace after about a year.

03 // WHY IT MATTERS
If your cookies spread, your bread is gummy, or your cake sinks — flour weight is usually why.
A scooped cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 125g to 180g. That's a 44% range — enough to wreck a cake.
Modern recipes use the spoon-and-level method: fluff the flour, spoon it into a dry measuring cup without packing, then sweep flat with a knife.
The scoop method — pushing the cup directly into the bag — packs in 40-50% more flour.
