Pickled Red Onions to Cry For

Ingredients

  • 1 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp whole black peppercorns
  • 1 stick cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tbsp pickling spices
  • 1 large red onion, thinly sliced

Directions

  1. Place vinegar, water, sugar and salt in a stainless-steel pot. Place the peppercorns, cinnamon and pickling spices in a small piece of cheesecloth and tie with kitchen string. Add to the pot. Bring mixture to the boil and cook about 2 minutes. Let mixture cool. Remove and discard cheesecloth.
  2. Place raw onion slices in a clean jar and add the liquid. It's fine if the liquid doesn't reach the top; the onions will release more juice as they marinate. Cap jar and refrigerate for up to a month.
  3. Use in salads, on cooked meats, on pizza, burgers, with fish and seafood.
