Sweet Pickled Red Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Cut onions into 1/4-inch-thick slices; transfer to a colander set in a bowl. Toss well with the salt. Refrigerate 1 hour. Rinse well; drain. Pat dry between paper towels.
• Bring vinegar, sugar, and spices to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Add onions; bring to a boil. Transfer onions to a large bowl using a slotted spoon. Let brine cool completely, about 30 minutes; pour over onions. Transfer to airtight containers; refrigerate at least 1 week (pickles will keep 3 weeks more).

Steps:

• Bring 3/4 cup white vinegar, 1/4 cup orange juice, 3 tablespoons lime juice, 2 thinly sliced red onions, 1 tablespoon each sugar and kosher salt, 2 bay leaves and 1 teaspoon coriander seeds to a simmer in a saucepan. Transfer to a nonreactive bowl and let cool, stirring occasionally. Serve at room temperature or cover and refrigerate up to 4 days.

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:

• Bring all ingredients except onions to a boil.
• Reduce heat and gently boil for one minute.
• While mixture is boiling, cram onion rings into a glass jar as tightly as you can. Don't worry if the rings break. This is not a pretty pickle.
• Remove boiling mixture from stove and pour directly into the jar. Allow bubbles to rise to the surface, then refill as needed leaving 2cm headroom.
• Screw lid on gently and allow to cool on counter top.
• Once cooled, refrigerate for up to one month.
• This is not a sterilized pickle. Do not store unrefrigerated!

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:

• 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:

• You should have 22 cups onion rings once all are sliced. You should have 6 cups pepper rings once all are sliced.
• In large pot, combine vinegar, honey, mustard seeds, allspice, and anise seeds. Bring to a boil uncovered for three minutes. Add onion rings and cook, stirring gentle for 8 minutes or until onion begin to turn limp. Remove from heat, stir in pepper rings.
• Add one bay leaf to each 1 pint hot sterlized jars. Using tongs, pack jars with onions and peppers, leaving 1/4" headspace.
• Ladle hot vinegar mixture into jars, leaving 1/4" headspace. Make sure bubbles are removed. Wipe rims and add lids.
• Process in water bath for 10 minutes. Start timing once water is boiling.
