Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 large red onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, (peeled)
  • 1 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar (or Monkfruit sweetener)
  • 2 tablespoons sea salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns

Instruction

  • Wash.  Wash and sterilize jars and lids by filling them with boiling water or running them through a cycle of the dishwasher. You'll need two 8 oz jars or one 16 oz. jar.
  • Combine. Combine the ingredients for the pickling liquid and simmer until the sugar and salt have dissolved and the brine has begun to boil. You can heat the pickling brine in a saucepan on the stovetop or in a glass container in the microwave.
  • Slice. Slice the onion. You can use either a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer to make slices about ¼ inch thick.
  • Fill. Fill the jars with the onion slices, garlic cloves and black peppercorns.
  • Pour. Cool the brine slightly, then pour it over the onion slices to fill the jars, leaving about ½ inch of headroom.
  • Store. Add a lid and store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
