Onion powder and onion salt make decent substitutes for dried minced onions, especially for dishes that aren't dependent on the texture dried minced onions. Onion powder and onion salt are both made of ground, dehydrated onion, but onion powder has no added salt. When substituting for dried minced onions, use half the amount of onion powder or onion salt. If the flavor isn't to your satisfaction, use a dash or two more. If you use onion salt, you may want to reduce other added salt in the dish.
