Pickled Red Onions

Notes

These are "quick pickled" and can be ready in about the time it takes to cook rice.

If you're in a hurry, leaving them on the countertop and agitating a few times helps them pickle faster.

Pairs well with macro bowls, buddha bowls, salads, sandwiches, and bean & rice dishes.

Ingredients

  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1/3 cup white vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Place the sliced red onion in a jar or container.
  2. Add the water, white vinegar, kosher salt, and maple syrup.
  3. Put a lid on the jar and swirl gently to combine for 15-20 seconds.
  4. Press onions beneath liquid as much as possible
  5. Refrigerate 30 mins until lightly pickled. Lasts about 7 days.
