I normally wouldn't use this, I was wondering, just in case. Though in the past I have had occasion had to use the dried in a salsa and the onions came out nicely sweet which help balance the chiles I used!
So, basically I still don't know the equivalents, and I'd like to know for my own edification.
According to E-cookbooks 1/4 cup of dehydrated onions = 1 cup of fresh raw onions.
and 1 TBSP onion powder = 4 TBSP fresh chopped onion.
Though I would substitute green onions, chives or leeks before I would use dried onions.

In my opinion, don't try this substitution. It's not going to yield the same results at all. What are you making?

I don't recommend it either.... it will not taste the same or give you the same consistency as the real thing...
