Ingredients

  • 3 pounds red onion
  • 4 cups white vinegar
  • 3 Tablespoons garlic minced

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Wash and preheat jars in water on stove. Wash lids and bands with warm soapy water. Set aside.
  2. 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.
  3. 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
