Ingredients
- 1 large red onion thinly sliced
- ¾ cup apple cider vinegar or white vinegar
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tbsp honey or sugar, see note
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 1 garlic clove minced
- ½ tsp whole black peppercorns optional
- ½ tsp mustard seeds optional
- ½ tsp dried chili flakes optional
Instructions
- First, place the sliced red onions in a clean jar or airtight container.
- In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, honey, salt, and the optional spices. Stir well.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the honey and salt have dissolved.
- Carefully pour the hot vinegar mixture over the sliced red onions in the jar, ensuring they are completely covered.
- Use a spoon to press down on the onions to submerge them and remove any air bubbles.
- Next, allow the pickled onions to cool down at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Once cooled, cover the jar tightly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using. The flavors will continue to develop as they marinate.
- Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- This recipe makes about 3 jars of pickled red onions.
- Thinly slice the red onions. Use a mandoline if needed.
- Traditional pickled red onions are made with white sugar. We love eating real food, so we substituted that with honey. Real sugar can be used in this recipe if desired.
- The optional spices add a delicious flavor! If you do not have them, simply omit.
- Store the pickled red onions for up to 2 weeks in the fridge. They are great on burgers, chicken, salads, sandwiches, and tacos.
