- Red onions, sliced
Directions
-
quipment:
- Saucepot
- Canning jar (for example, mason jar)
- Place onion slices in a canning jar.
- Use a ratio of 2:1:1—2 parts water, 1 part sugar, and 1 part vinegar. Adjust the amount of pickling liquid to match the size of the batch of pickled onions you want to make. If you are unfamiliar with ratios, 2 cups water, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup vinegar in a 16-ounce canning jar is a good place to start. How many onions you use will depend on their size.
- Combine the water, sugar, and vinegar into a saucepot and bring to a simmer. Once all of the sugar has dissolved into the liquid, pour the hot pickling liquid over the red onions to submerge them and seal the jar.
- Let cool to room temperature and store in the refrigerator.
