Pickled Red Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the first four ingredients until sugar and salt dissolve. Place onions and optional ingredients, if desired, into large glass jar; pour vinegar mixture over onions. Seal and let stand at least 2 hours at room temperature. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Place onion slices in medium bowl.
• Bring next 5 ingredients to boil in heavy medium saucepan; pour over onions in bowl.
• Cover; cool to room temperature.
• Chill overnight.
• DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 weeks ahead. Keep chilled.
• Drain before serving.

Steps:

• Put the onions in a medium bowl. Combine the vinegar, sugar, coriander, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the onions, cover and set aside until cooled to room temperature.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan.
• Stuff onion slices into a pint-size Mason jar. Pour some of the boiling water over the onions. Let rest for 10 seconds. Pour out water through a mesh strainer, keeping onions in the jar. Repeat twice more to cook onions slightly.
• Measure vinegar into a bowl. Stir in salt and sugar until dissolved. Add peppercorns. Pour vinegar solution over onions. Seal and shake well.
• Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving so that the flavor develops.

Steps:

• Pour the vinegar into a pan, add the sugar, sea salt, the spices and bay leaf, and bring to a simmer. After 1 min, check that the sugar and salt have dissolved. Remove from the heat.
• Boil the kettle. Put the onion slices in a sieve or colander. Pour over the hot water from the kettle and drain well. When cool enough to handle, pack the onion rings into a 500g sterilised jar (see tip below). Pour over the warm vinegar and seal. Cool, then chill and leave to pickle for 2 hrs. Will keep for 6 months unopened, or 2 weeks in the fridge once opened.

Steps:

• Place onions in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring vinegar, sugar, and salt to a boil in a saucepan; pour over onions. Let cool completely. Refrigerate, covered, at least 2 hours and up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Blanch 2 sliced red onions in a small saucepan of boiling water to cover for 1 minute and drain in a colander. Then return them to the pan and add a cup of cider vinegar, a teaspoon of salt, and just enough cold water to barely cover the onions. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer the onions 1 minute. Transfer the onions and brine to a glass jar and chill. The onions will turn the color of a pink piñata and will get crisp as they cool. They'll keep for weeks in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• 1. Put on a kettle of water to boil. Cut the onion into very thin slices or a mince and place it in a colander in the sink.
• 2. In a bowl large enough to comfortably fit all the onion, combine the vinegar, sweetener, and salt and whisk until blended.
• 3. Pour the boiling water over the onion and shake to drain. (It's fine if a little water still clings.)
• 4. Add the onion to the vinegar solution and stir to coat. Let it sit for at least an hour or up to several days, covered and refrigerated, occasionally stirring and/or shaking to allow maximum exposure to the liquid. Store in a jar with a tight-fitting lid in the refrigerator.
• Optional Enhancements
• For beautiful, exotic pickled fruit, add fresh or frozen cherries, blueberries, or raspberries-or some small watermelon chunks-to the onion after the first hour of sitting time * Add any of the following to the pickle mixture: Raw broccoli stems, peeled and cut into slender matchsticks * Raw fennel, cut into thin slices * Lightly steamed carrot slices * Lightly steamed cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets

Steps:

• Combine lime and orange juices in a small bowl and set aside.
• Place the onions in a non-aluminum bowl. Pour boiling water over them and wait 10 seconds, then pour the onions into a strainer.
• Return the drained onions to the bowl, pour on the citrus juices and stir in salt. Cover and set aside until serving time. Just before serving, drain onions and set out in serving bowl.
