Ingredients
- 1 large red onion
- 1/2 cup filtered water
- 1/2 cup apple cider or distilled white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar optional, to help cut the acidity of the vinegar
Instructions
- Slice red onions into very thin slices. Place red onion into a pint-sized jar. Mix filtered water, vinegar and sugar together in a bowl and stir to combine. Pour over red onion. Place into the fridge and allow to sit for 2-3 days at a minimum. The onions will slowly change color to a uniform pink, and will taste more pickled the longer they rest.
- Be sure to remove the amount of onions you need for a recipe with a clean fork, so you do not contaminate the rest of the jar. Return to the fridge and use periodically. They will store for weeks, or even longer, in the fridge.
