Instructions

Wash and preheat jars in water on stove. Wash lids and bands with warm soapy water. Set aside.
Peel onions and slice 1/8 - 1/4 inch thick. Separate slices into rings. Bring vinegar and garlic to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add onion rings to vinegar mixture. The pot may be very full. Cover and simmer for about 7 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Pack hot onion mixture into half pint or smaller hot jars tightly. Be sure onions are covered in hot pickling liquid. Leave ¼ inch headspace. Remove any air bubbles, wipe the rim, apply the lid and band, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes, adjusting time for altitude, as needed (see note).

Notes

Just make a smaller amount and store in the refrigerator.For altitude adjustment, see https://www.freshpreserving.com/altitude-adjusting.html
