How to Pickle Red Onions

• servings: 8 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 1 hour

Ingredients

1 red onion, thinly sliced (use a mandoline if you have one)

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1 cup hot water (not boiling)

Directions

Slice Onions

Slice the red onions as thin as you can. I use a mandoline but a sharp knife works well, too.

Place in container

Stuff all the red onions in the jar of your choice. A bowl works too but a jar is easier to store in the fridge.

Add pickling liquid

In a measuring cup, combine apple cider vinegar, salt, sugar, and warm water. Stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. Pour the pickling mixture over the sliced onions, making sure they are immersed in the liquid, and let them set for an hour.

Store

After an hour, cover and store in the fridge for up to three weeks.
