White onions or yellow onions?
Also, how many of you use onion powder in your jambalaya?

I'd like to see some general guidelines if any exist for general use. I have no idea when to use one or the other, and if it matters.

Just a personal preference, but I use green onions.
I use mostly the white parts for the Trinity and the green, softer parts for garnish.
Green onions and garlic hitting a roux is pure heaven. (Yes I know jamb doesn't have a roux, just saying.)

White are a bit milder and sweeter. They don't store as well as yellow but they are pretty much interchangeable in cooked dishes. I like white raw.

Yellow onion is typically used and has a stronger flavor.
White onion is used more for Mexican dishes.

Never used it on its own. I'm sure its in some premixed seasons like Slap Ya Momma that I do sometimes use.

using 1 tsp of onion and also garlic powder per pound of onions, helps. I also do the same in other dishs just not the same amounts.

Yellow and lots of them. Same amount of onions as rice.
