    They're lovely sprinkled on salad, or mixed in with breadcrubs and cheese for a crispy topping for sheperd's pie etc. I also used to work in a bakery where they were used to make the filling for cheese and onion pasties - they mixed mash, grated cheese, the dried onions and herbs/seasoning.

    oh they're great things :) good suggestions from the other posters

    I have to stop myself doing what Lorian does :naughty: :rotfl:

    I've crushed them up & used them in savoury hand made bread dough, they work well in a breadmaker too
