There was a time when I pushed back on all onions. Heaven forbid a picked onion come across my plate. Youth and lack of a pallet led me down those dark paths and now I embrace the onion with open arms. I particularly have come to love pickled onion and for me, it’s become an every day obsession.
This is a simple recipe. Easy to execute and if you are just not sure it’s an inexpensive test and measure. Give them at least an hour to sit but overnight is best. They will last well over a month and honestly I’ve been known to use them after 2 months. They will develop a lovely pink color as time goes on, that’s perfectly normal.
