I store my everything but the bagel seasoning in a canning jar with a lid and a ring in a cool dry place. You want to keep moisture out of the seasoning so any airtight container would work. Keep out of direct sunlight to keep the ingredients from degrading.
Can I substitute onion powder and garlic powder in this recipe?
As much as you would want to substitute onion powder and garlic powder for the dried minced onion and the dried minced garlic, I highly suggest you do NOT make the substitution. A tablespoon of dried minced onion and a tablespoon of onion powder have not only a different texture but the intensity of the onion flavor is more powerful in a tablespoon of onion powder. Even if you were to adjust the measurements, the powders would settle to the bottom of the jar and you would not have the right mixture to have the flavors you love.
