My sister reminded me of dads alternate to extra chillies, add a piece of root ginger (fresh or dried) or a good pinch of ground ginger. (Add at step 5) if you like a real bite, add ginger and chillies!!

Pickled Onions
This recipe is not an original. I learnt the basics from my Aunty and have since altered some ingredients and methods which I found by trial and and error and my good friend google. For instance I learnt from the internet that if you soak your onions in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then put them in the sink with cold water, peeling them is so much easier. I use a pressure cooker to sterilize my jars. You can add up to 1 tbspn of brown sugar to the vinegar mix to sweeten a little. Use any vinegar you prefer, this is a good recipe to experiment with. Omit the chilli flakes if you dont like them but the finished onions are not very hot and the chilli does give a nice subtle tang. One other tip. If you double up on the recipe, no need to use double the amount of salt. I use just a pinch or so more only when I prepare 2 kilos of onions.

Pickled Onions
I heard from my husband that pickled onions are good for you, so now it's become a staple dish in our home.For those who aren't quite partial to vinegar, use 1 part vinegar to 1 part soy sauce, or add sugar or dashi stock to make it milder. You can use the leftover vinaigrette for vinegar dishes or to make ponzu or dressing. Pickling eliminates the sharpness of the onion and highlights the sweetness. See. Recipe by Setsumika

Pickled Onion Tops
I was doing a recipe for old fashioned pickled onion, so I thought what can I do with tall these tops. So here it is. It reminded me when I turned 5 years old. We left Florida on my birthday to go to Georgia. My dad was working out of state.He finished the job and got another in Tennessee. So we move there. Right before I turned 6, I started first grade. I remembered this because at first they wasn't going to let me because I had about 3 weeks before I turned 6. So anyway my mom convinced them.In the area of Tennessee Ridge, Tennessee the grass had wild onions growing in it. When they mowed the grass especially at the school it had a nice aroma of onion. So during recess a lot of us went to pick onion tops and eat them. So I thought of this recipe a pickled snack or add on to different dishes or sandwiches.
Pickled Radishes
Several recipes and tips exist on Pickled Radishes, but I wanted a very simple and fast method of doing it with quality results. Mrs. Donk and I are gardening and have found that we have a overwhelming amount of produce, Radishes are more than we can put on the dinner table during the growing season and we have to do something with them. It's simple and easy! You can change it up in many different ways. For example, momma doesn't like hot and spicy but I do so I will put a little Tabasco Sauce in a few jars and omit it from hers. If you like it really hot, add some jalapeño slices! Enjoy and feel free to give any suggestions or tips of your own!

For a long time I thought radishes were boring and pointless. My partner, who is a chef, would order me food with "no radishes!" However, I discovered the art of pickling vegetables and this recipe turns a dull vegetable into something truly delicious.

Pickled Garlic 🧄
A delicious side dish among Persians👌🏻😋.Garlic pickle is a type of pickle that is prepared by putting dry garlic in vinegar. This mixture is ready for use after at least 2 years, and the longer it is prepared, the better it becomes, so that its quality is related to its age, and the seven-year-old pickled garlic is of high quality
