I used this brine recipe 2 weeks ago for my first attempt at pickling onions, i used apple cider vinegar instead of white. The onions werr so good! Then i got crafty and started to experiment. In the bottom of a new jar i put a dollop of minced garlic and a healthy shake shake of red pepper flakes. Then i packed the jar with sliced cucumbers and thin red onions. They were delicious and got better each day, everyone at my husbands office loved them! I took some and chopped them up and threw them in tuna salad in place of our standard dill relish and diced white onion, total game changer! It was like a super gourmet tuna salad LOL
Making another big batch today to take on vacation next week!

Love these onions. They were called for in a chick pea salad recipe I tried. They’re also great on burgers, hot dogs, hoagies/subs, liverwurst sandwiches.

In reply to Roxanne. I'm planning on halving the recipe and using one 1 pint jar. 1 cup water, vinegar. One tablespoon non-iodized salt. One tablespoon plus one teaspoon sugar. One clove garlic, 1/2 teaspoon peppercorns.

I just made this with one average size red onion. I cut all the other ingredients in half and it all fit into a 10-12oz jar plus a smaller one, so similar to 1 16oz. There was a tiny bit of brine left over, but that’s normal for pickle making. Hope that helps 🙂

Looking forward to trying these tomorrow on smoked brisket tacos!

Needed some sweet pickled onions to top a lobster, smoked salmon, arugula, caper and white sauce pizza. THESE were PERFECT! A squeeze of lemon and fresh dill provided the expected flavour boosts . . . but the sweet, tangy crunch and lovely pink colour of the onions pushed the dish over the edge!

How many times can I reuse the brine once we’ve eaten all the pickles?
