You will kick yourself when you realise how easy and quick it is to make your own pink onions.
Seriously, all you need is sliced red onions, vinegar, salt and a sprinkle of sugar. It only takes 7 minutes to make but I would give it 1 hour before they are good to eat. They can last 2 weeks in your fridge.
Here are some recipes that are great with pickled pink onions:

1. Add sliced onions (I like to use a mandoline) to a medium bowl. Pour boiling water over so they are covered for 20-30 seconds and then drain. This is to remove the bitterness and to soften the raw onion crunch. Add the onions to a well-cleaned/serialized glass jar or tupperware box with a lid. 2. Add the vinegar, sugar and salt and bring to a boil in the small saucepan on a medium-high heat, until the sugar has all dissolved (2/3 minutes). 3. Add the liquid to the onion follow by the lime juice and let stand at room temperature until cooled. Cover and pop in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. BIFF, BOSH, PICKLED NOSH! |
