Pink Pickles Onions Recipe
These sweet and tangy pickled onions are the perfect topping for salads, grilled meats, tacos, burgers, and more. They take just 5 minutes to prepare and you probably have all the ingredients at home already. With a delightful sweet-and-sour flavor and a slight crunch, they complement rich and bold dishes beautifully.
Ingredients
- 1 Red onion
- 1 cup White wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp Caster superfine sugar
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Wholegrain mustard
Instructions
- Peel and slice the red onion thinly.
- In a clean jar, combine vinegar, sugar, salt, and mustard.
- Screw on the lid and shake well until sugar and salt dissolve.
- Add sliced onion to the jar and mix well.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.
Notes
- I use a standard Australian 20ml tablespoon.
- You can use regular granulated sugar, but ensure to shake the brine ingredients well to dissolve it. If it doesn’t dissolve, heat the pickling liquid, stirring until it dissolves, before adding the onion.
