These onions are a combination or spicy, salty, sweet and tangy. Perfect combination to go on your sandwiches, salads, or just eat as a snack (like I do). I make them beat in an old large pickle jar (can make a lot)

1 cupwhite vinegar

1 cupwater

½ cupkosher salt

adjust to the saltiness you prefer

2 tablespoonssugar

½ teaspoonred pepper flakes

1 teaspoondried dill

or 1 1/2 teaspoon fresh dill

Instructions

Step 1

Rinse and dry a large canning jar, or reuse a pickle jar.

Step 2

Thinly slice red onions any way you like, I use a mandolin to slice them thin. Save a small piece of skin from the onion (washed and dried) to enhance the red color. Quarter the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a medium sauce pan, combine the vinegars & water. Set on a low heat and stir in salt and sugar until they dissolve. Adjust salt and or sugar at this point. Do not bring to a boil only warm enough to dissolve the salt and sugar, you don’t want to cook the onions.

Step 4

Place the skin of the onion in the bottom of the jar. Squish all the slices of onions into the jar, fill to the top. Slide in the garlic. Place in your seasonings so the liquid mixture will evenly disperse the seasonings through the jar.

Step 5

Pour the liquid into the jar filling all the way to the top, give a small shake to the jar to remove any bubbles and fill again, discard any unused liquid.

Step 6

Let jar cool slightly. Tighten cap and shake the jar to get everything dispersed. Leave in your refrigerator for 2 days before opening. The longer it’s left to sit the better they taste. Enjoy!!
