Sunday, March 26, 2023
These pink pickled onions are perfect for sandwiches, salads, garnishes or simply for snacking on. Easy to make and delicious too!
I love pickled onions, always have done but these pink ones are just perfect. Milder and sweeter, they simply go with everything.
Once you have made them, you need to leave them for a minimum of two hours, but the longer you leave them, the better the taste. Bear in mind that this is a quick pickle so they will last for few weeks in the fridge.
Everything you need to make them is detailed below.

Instructions
