Ingredients
  

  • 1 onion thinly sliced
  • ½ cup vinegar
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp salt I used himalayan pink salt
  • 1 cup hot or warm water

Instructions
 

  • Slice the red onions as thin as possible into little strips. Rinse them quickly with boiling water and drain. This just helps to remove that super strong and pungent raw onion flavour.
  • In a mason jar, combine the vinegar, salt, sugar, and warm water. Stir thoroughly to dissolve the sugar and salt.
  • Add your sliced onions into the pickling mixture, making sure they are immersed in the liquid. let them set for an hour. After an hour, cover and store in the fridge for up to three weeks.

Notes
