Instructions

  1. Begin by cutting your red onions in half and then thinly slice them into half-moons. The thinner, the better, as this will allow the flavors to fully absorb into the onions. You can use a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer for consistency.
  2. Place the sliced onions in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Sprinkle a generous amount of sumac over the onions along with salt, flaked chili, and chopped parsley, then toss everything together until the onions are evenly covered with sumac.
  4. Although you can serve the onions right away, letting them sit for about 10-15 minutes allows the flavors to meld together. 

Notes

  • Sumac loses its flavor over time, so make sure you're using fresh, high-quality sumac for the best results. If your Sumac has been sitting in your pantry for years, it’s time for an upgrade.
  • Using a very sharp knife or mandolin for thinly sliced onions is essential.
  • Sumac onions actually improve the longer they sit. If you’re preparing for a party or just like meal prepping, you can make them up to a day in advance and store them in the fridge. Just give them a good stir before serving.
  • If your onions are too strong, soak them in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain and pat them dry before using them in your salad.
