One small onion is a bit bigger than the size of a golf ball, while medium onions are about the size of an apple, perhaps a bit smaller. A golf ball has a diameter of 42.67mm, so let's say a small onion is 45mm. A medium one would be about 70. 70 / 45 = 1.55 One medium onion equals approximately 1.5 small onions.
1 teaspoon onion powder = 1 tablespoon dried onion flakes (minced onions) according to http://www.foodsubs.com/Onionsdry.html. So, 4 tablespoons of minced onion would be 4 teaspoons of onion powder
