Recipe

1
large red onion , thinly sliced
1 cup
apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp.
granulated sugar
3 tsp.
Kosher salt
2 Tbsp.
whole black peppercorns
1 Tbsp.
yellow mustard seeds
1 ½ Tbsp.
fennel seeds

Step 1

Sliced the onions between ¼ and ½ inch. Using a mandoline will make quick work of this.

Step 2

Combine the remaining ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to simmer. Stir constantly until the sugar and salt have dissolved, approximately 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Step 3

Stuff the the red onions into a mason jar. When you think you can't get any more slices in the jar, add a couple more, there will be room.

Step 4

Pour pickle mixture into the red onion filled mason jars, leaving about ½ inch from the top of the jar.

Step 5

Seal jars and let sit until they reach room temperature. Store in a cool place. Onions will be ready in about a day and can be stored for two to three weeks. Don't worry you will eat them before that.
