Add color to your food: Pickled Onion 🌈

For the last 3 months, I've been obsessed with pickled onions. I thought it was difficult and time consuming to make. But, it's not. I'm not pickling onions in a big jar, rather prepare it to consume it in the next day. I have this tiny plastic storage cup that I use for pickling onions. Enjoy this as a topping to your favorite tacos or salads.
You can keep this in the fridge up to 2 days (based on my research).
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Slice the onions thinly. You can do it with a knife if you trust your chopping skills. Alternatively you can use a mandoline slicer.
- 2
Once you have the onions sliced and ready, put them on a cutting board and put 1-2 tbsp of salt. Then massage onions with salt for 3 mins. While you're massaging the onions squeeze the excess juice. Onions should feel somewhat slimy.
- 3
Once onions are ready transfer them into the jar you like and add the vinegar and honey. I usually add vinegar and put vinegar to the point where onions are swimming. Mix the honey and make sure it dissolves in vinegar
- 4
Add black pepper, close the lid

If you really like them to be pickled, I would say wait for couple hours. But, if you're impatient like me, you can have them right away!

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.

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. darbo -
