Tip of the Week: How to Make Quick Pickled Onions

.

If you aren’t too big on the aggressive punch of raw onions, but still want to add their natural flavor to a dish, then you should have a go at making your own quick pickled onions! Quickly pickling onions is a great way of mellowing out their flavor while also adding an extra bit of sour zing.

All you’ll need to do is finely slice a small onion (white or red are fine), place it in a bowl and season liberally with salt and sugar, around a big pinch of each. Then, add just enough of an acid of your choice (we like vinegar and citrus fruit juice) to cover the onion. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes and you should have a batch of quick pickled onions at your disposal!
