Description

These Easy Refrigerator Pickled Onions are packed with flavor and the perfect condiment for so many savory meals!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large red onions
  • 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 2 teaspoons fine sea salt
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup white distilled vinegar, or more to cover the onions
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice the red onions.  I like to make mine bit sized so I cut the onion in half and then thinly slice it from there.  You can make the slices are long or short as you like.
  2. Either in a large mason jar or bowl, add the garlic, peppercorns, salt and maple syrup.  Stir until combined and then pack in all of your onion slices.  If making in a jar, make sure to press them down so you can fit as many in as you can.
  3. Pour in the vinegar and water.  At this point, if all the of onions are not fully covered you can add in extra vinegar or water until they are.
  4. Tighten the lid on the jar and shake until all ingredients are evenly distributed.  If making in a bowl, just stir until combined.
  5. Cover and refrigerate overnight, but can be refrigerate up to about 3 weeks.
