Quick Pickled Red Onions

Pickled Onions have never been so easy! Sandwiches, salads, and tacos can be elevated by adding pickled onions. I always like to have these on hand! I even like to add chilli flakes to give them a spicy kick.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 Large Red Onions Sliced
  • 1 cup Apple Cider Vinegar or White Vinegar
  • 2 cups Water
  • 2 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
  • 3 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Red Chilli Flakes Optional

Instructions

  • Slice the red onions into thin slices. I like to slice them into full rounds, but you can also slice the onion in half to create a flat surface.
  • Add the onion slices into the clean jar. Pack in the onions tight.
  • In a small saucepan, add the water, vinegar, salt, and sugar. Heat on low until the sugar and salt have dissolved.
  • Pour the warm liquid over the onions in the jar. Use a skewer to poke through the jar to help remove air bubbles.
  • Place the lid on the jar and allow it to cool before placing it in the fridge.
  • For best results, leave the jar unopened for 2 days before consuming.
  • Keep in the fridge, keep well for up to a month.
