I'm trying to find new recipes and see a lot with a can of French onion dip.
What's the taste difference between that and (for example) Lipton's onion soup. (As you can see, a chef, I am not)

Did you mean French onion soup? The biggest difference I see with the can of soup is water and a bit less salt. To me dehydrated soup is more convenient, takes less space and can be mixed with cheeses etc.
I particularly like french onion soup when combined with sour kraut. It takes the edge off the tanginess of the Kraut. This is the only way my DH will eat Kraut and links.
I've used the dry and wet form of French Onion soup for meatloaf, meatballs, in crockpots for roasts. It's pretty good on Pork, Beef and Chicken.
I've also used the dry form as part of a dry rub mix. ie: 1 envelope, add pepper, brown sugar, dry mustard, garlic, paprika. I like to process the mix in my bullet blender to break up the dried onions.... it's tasty and adds a little something extra. Add that to flower and dredge for onion fried chicken.
Should I go on?
