MICHAEL'S SLIGHTLY SALTY PICKLED ONIONS



Michael's Slightly Salty Pickled Onions image

This recipe came from my friend Michael. He got the recipe from his grandmother, and made a few changes to it. (Like figuring out her very cryptic instructions.) These are a different pickled onion than the usual, having no extra spices and having a distinct salty quality. Of course, they don't have nearly as much salt in them as called for by the recipe, but they are definitely not a low-salt pickle. The quantity of brine to onions will depend on the size of your onions; and you will need to make several batches of the brine. (I've listed each batch.) He did not use pearl onions, just regular cooking onions, but small ones.

Tips:

  • Choose the right onions: Small, firm onions with thin skin are best for pickling. Red onions add a beautiful pop of color, while yellow onions have a milder flavor.
  • Slice the onions thinly: This will help them absorb the pickling liquid more evenly.
  • Use a clean jar: Make sure the jar you use for pickling is clean and sterile. This will help prevent bacteria from forming.
  • Use a good quality vinegar: The type of vinegar you use will affect the flavor of your pickled onions. White vinegar is a good all-purpose choice, while apple cider vinegar will give your onions a slightly sweeter flavor.
  • Add some spices: Spices like mustard seeds, peppercorns, and bay leaves will add flavor to your pickled onions. You can also add herbs like dill or thyme.
  • Let the onions pickle for at least 24 hours: The longer you let the onions pickle, the more flavorful they will be. However, you can enjoy them after just a few hours if you're in a hurry.

Conclusion:

Pickled onions are a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. They're perfect for topping tacos, sandwiches, and salads. They can also be used as a garnish for cocktails or as a side dish. With a little planning, you can easily make your own pickled onions at home.
