Frequently Asked Questions

What is Everything Bagel Seasoning?

Traditionally, it’s made with black poppy seeds, black sesame seeds, white sesame seeds, salt (often coarse kosher salt), and of course, dried minced garlic and dried minced onion. For those in the Elimination Phase of the low FODMAP diet, those last two ingredients would be considered high FODMAP and need a swap. So, we’ve added an allium kick with a small amount of low FODMAP garlic and onion powder replacements (from Fodmazing and FreeFod). 

What Are Low FODMAP Garlic & Onion Powders?

Conventional garlic and onion powders are made from dried and granulated, or powdered, garlic cloves or onion and are high FODMAP foods. There are a couple of low FODMAP garlic and onion powders on the market: FreeFod Garlic and Onion Replacers and Fodmazing Garlic or Onion Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod products have been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients – maltodextrin and natural garlic or onion flavor. We find them to be excellent additions to your herb and spice collection. Use them as you would conventional garlic or onion powders.

What Is Maldon Salt?

Maldon salt flakes are a natural salt from England with a unique pyramidal shape that provides a sublime crunch. Recognized as some of the finest of sea salts in the world, they have a very fresh, clean flavor. Its texture is fabulous in this blend. You could also use kosher salt such as Morton’s (a tad smaller in size than Maldon) or Diamond Crystal (finer still). We suggest this order of choice as the bolder the texture the better for this recipe.

Untested Ingredients In Our Low FODMAP Everything Bagel Spice Mix

Also, please note that black sesame seeds have not been lab tested for FODMAPs, however, a 1 tablespoon (9 g) serving contains 0 g of sugars and its carbohydrate content is very low, therefore it can be considered likely to be low FODMAP in the amounts you will be consuming, based on our serving size.

Please read our article, What If A Food Hasn’t Been Lab Tested For FODMAPs?

Dried Chives Provide Great Onion Flavor

We’ve also gone off the beaten bath just slightly and opted to add a bit of crushed dried chives for a punch of color and another layer of low FODMAP onion flavoring. Use our Everything Bagel seasoning on eggs, avocado toast, soups, salads, lunch bowls – the sky is the limit with this one!

FODMAP Information

All recipes are based upon Monash University & FODMAP Friendly science at time of initial publication.

  • Black Sesame Seeds: Black sesame seeds have not been lab tested for FODMAPs, however, a 1 tablespoon (9 g) serving contains 0 g of sugars and its carbohydrate content is very low, therefore it can be considered likely to be low FODMAP in the average amounts you will be consuming.
  • Herbs: Many fresh and dried herbs have been lab tested by both Monash University and FODMAP Friendly and are easily looked up in the apps, which we strongly suggest that you have. The additional good news is that if you are interested in an herb that has not been lab tested, you can look at the nutritional panel and assess its FODMAP load for yourself. If the “Sugars” and/or “Carbs” are 1 g or less per serving, then the item would be a good bet to try.
  • Low FODMAP Garlic Powder: Conventional garlic powder is made from dried and granulated, or powdered, garlic cloves and is considered high FODMAP. There are a couple of low FODMAP garlic powders on the market: FreeFod Garlic Replacer and Fodmazing Garlic Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod has been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients – maltodextrin and natural garlic flavor. We find them to be excellent additions to your herb and spice collection. Use them as you would conventional garlic powder.
  • Low FODMAP Onion Powder: Conventional onion powder is made from dried and granulated, or powdered, onion and is considered high FODMAP.

  • Sesame Seeds: Monash University has lab tested white sesame seeds and they are low FODMAP in 1 tablespoon (11 g) portions.

Please always refer to the Monash University & FODMAP Friendly smartphone apps for the most up-to-date lab tested information. Foods will be retested from time to time; in the case of raw ingredients, such as fruits and vegetables, results may vary. All lab tested results are valid and represent a snapshot in time. As always, your tolerance is what counts; please eat accordingly. The ultimate goal of the low FODMAP diet is to eat as broadly as possible, without triggering symptoms, for the healthiest microbiome.
