Step 1

Thinly slice your chunks of onion into C-shapes using a mandoline on the thinnest setting.

Step 2

Place the onions in a jar and add vinegar – fill the jar about one third of the way.

Step 3

Fill the rest of the jar with water. Add salt and sugar; shake a few times to combine.

Step 4

Let them rest in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour – then they’re ready to use! They can stay in the fridge up to 5-7 days.

Chef’s notes

Use a mandoline to slice the onions very thin for maximum brine absorption and beautiful presentation.

No need to heat the liquid:

just use straight vinegar, water, sugar, and salt for a quick pickling method.

Best consumed within 5-7 days for optimal taste and texture.
