Ingredients needed: 2.5 pounds of red onions, 1 C apple cider vinegar, 1 C water, 1 tsp. sea salt, and 1 T evaporated cane juice.
Starting cooking your brine on the stove top. Combine all ingredients (except the onions) in a pot over med-hi heat. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
While your brine is cooking, slice our red onions thinnly. I used a mandoline slicer, but you could use a knife if you can slice thinnly enough. Pack the onions in pint jars. I fit 2 1/2 pounds in 3 pint jars.
Pour slightly cooked bring over the top of onions to the cover them completely. Allow to refrigerate for 24-48 hours before serving. Use within 1 month.
With the upcoming grilling season you are going to love offering these at your table. I really love putting them on sandwiches and hoagies too!

We grill a lot over the summer! This would be perfect to have on hand :)
My dad drives me nuts constantly asking for onions lol
This looks fabulous -- and easy! I'm sure it's cheaper than buying jarred pickled onions and tastes better too. Thanks for a great recipe.
How about this is something I never would have thought of doing at home, although it seems easy to do and would jazz up a lot of spring and summer lunches/dinners. Cool idea!
We love onions over here and I get tired of slicing and cooking them almost everyday. I am going to have to try this.

We've always made a type of pickled onions, but never used red onions. Don't know why I didn't think of it!
What a great way to use onions. This would be great to use on burgers
I love pickled onions. I esp. love the ones I find in the Asian markets that are made with pearl onions. :)
I need to save this. my husband would love it
Yep, hubby would love it. Saving.
Oh! This is SUCH a great idea! We have guests a lot for Spring and Summer. So perfect!
This is the first time that I heard about pickled onions :) thanks for sharing!
Another great clean eating recipe to try out this summer!
how long will these last in fridge
I have used them for a few months afterwards and thought they still seemed good but use your own judgment.
