Description

A quick pickle recipe for red onions for use on Tacos and other Mexican foods.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 red onion
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 Tbs sugar
  • 1 Tbs peppercorns
  • 2 Tbs chile pods
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • additional water

Instructions

  1. Thin slice a red onion into rings and place in a clean, large mason jar.
  2. Boil remaining ingredients (except extra water) to a simmer until the salt and sugar are dissolved and then pour over the onions in the jar.
  3. Add additional water to the jar until the onions are completely covered in liquid.
