  • Erin prefers Spice Islands® onion powder. Avoid onion salt.
  • Molasses varies in potassium content. The lowest is light molasses (180 mg per tablespoon); then dark molasses (210 mg/tablespoon); blackstrap molasses is very high in potassium (450 mg /tablespoon—not recommended.) Molasses is made from extracted and boiled sugarcane or beet sugar juice.
