Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced about 1/8" thick
  • 1 clove garlic, sliced

Instruction

  • Thinly slice the onions and garlic and pack a pint size mason jar or heatproof container.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the water, vinegar, sugar, salt, and red pepper flakes. With medium heat, bring the brining mixture to a simmer, then carefully pour into the mason jar over the onions and garlic.
  • Use a spoon to press the onions down into the vinegar. Let the pickled onions cool on the counter, 20 to 30 minutes. Cover and refrigerate. The pickled onions will keep for two to three weeks, but we like them best if used within a few days after making.
