Pickled Red Onions
A pint jar of pickled onions ready for some brisket tacos. Yum!

Makes 1/2 Pint Jar

Ingredients

~1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
Brine
1/4 cup Heinz® Distilled White Vinegar
1/4 cup Heinz® Apple Cider Vinegar
3/4 cup water
1 teaspoon RealSalt® Salt
1 tablespoon C&H® Granulated Sugar
Spices
Smoked Peppercorn
Smoked Salt
Whole Cumin Seeds
Allspice
Coriander
1 garlic clove, crushed
sprig of oregano

Directions

Put the vinegars, water, salt and sugar in a small pan and heat until boiling. Set aside until the pint jar is ready.

Put the spices, garlic, oregano and onion in a 1/2 pint canning jar.

Pour the brine into a jar till the onions are covered. Put in the fridge and chill at least 6 hours or better overnight.

Notes

  • There will be some brine left over. You can double the recipe if using pint jars or pickling a second jar.
  • Should keep for a week or two in the fridge.
  • I have also added a bay leaf if I did not have oregano. I wouldn’t add dried herbs, because the herbs stick to the onion slices.
  • This works for pickled radish. I combine the sliced onion with the radish if available.
