I’d never seen them there before, so I bought one ($7). They are amazing, which only means one thing, I’ll never find them there again.
I think I could eat them all, straight out the container. They gonna make pork tacos awesome!!!

Dude. These are the easiest thing to make and you can reuse the brine multiple times.

I always, ALWAYS, have a jar of pickled red onions in the fridge.

They are the best condiment.

I’ve done some pickling before, not much, but I’ll probably make this.

Salmon is right, these are so easy to make and cost probably $1 total to make. Not that 7 bucks is a lot but you should give it a try. I always have some in the fridge

As they’ve said above. Easiest pickles to make. Almost unlimited variations you can do. I made this quart Monday. Cost about 50 cent

Here is my no-cook favorite. Simple. Some recipes boil the vinegar and pour over the onions, but to me it makes the onions mushy.

In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup white vinegar, 2 teaspoons white sugar, and 2 teaspoons kosher salt.

Stir in 1 medium red onion (halved and thinly sliced) and 1 jalapeño chili (stemmed, halved lengthwise and seeded).

Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.

You can store any leftovers in a jar in the fridge.

My issue is neither the money nor the time, it’s that I can get a much tastier product tailored to my tastes for very little investment of either.

Try them on homemade pizza.

Pairs good with anchovies and sliced banana peppers.
