Ingredients & Method

Ingredients

  • 750g onions or shallots, peeled
  • 600ml Malt Vinegar (or enough to cover your onions)
  • 1 Tablespoon Pickling Spices (or your chosen spices)
  • 1 Tablespoon Salt (canning or pickling salt recommended as these do not contain the anti-caking agent that can spoil brine)
  • 1 Litre Jar
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar (Optional)
  • Additional table salt

Method

  1. Place your peeled onions in a bowl, sprinkle over some table salt and leave covered for 24 hours. This process helps them stay crunchy.
  2. In a saucepan, bring your vinegar, salt, sugar and spices to the boil to make your pickling liquid.
  3. Rinse your onions, dry with kitchen paper and spoon into sterilised jars. If you have any leftover spices, you can add them at this stage if desired.
  4. Pour the hot vinegar into the jars, making sure your onions are completely covered.
  5. Once cooled, tightly lid your jar and place in the fridge or keep in a cool place.
  6. We recommend waiting at least 2 weeks before eating.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
I bought 8kgs of medium onions from you and followed your recipe to pickle them. There wasn't one onion that was unusable, they were white, hard, and easy to peel. So looking forward to tasting them.

Simple things usually work the best
Can't go wrong with the first class produce (shallots) and a foolproof recipe my 2nd year using parish farms. Only 2 shallots wasted out of 4 kilo not bad eh!
