Easy Pickled Red Onions Recipe
This Easy Pickled Red Onions Recipe is quick and simple, perfect for enhancing your dishes.
Equipment
- Mandoline
- jar
- measuring cup
Ingredients
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced use a mandoline if you have one
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar substitute maple syrup or honey if desired
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 cup hot water not boiling
Instructions
- Slice the red onions as thin as you can. I use a mandoline but a sharp knife works well, too.
- 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.
- 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.
- After an hour, cover and store in the fridge for up to three weeks.
Notes
Other types of onions can be used instead of red onions. Recipe is easily doubled. Make sure you have enough clean jars with lids. Sliced onions should be completely immersed in vinegar solution.
