Pickled Red Onions Recipe
Pickle a big batch, put them on everything.
There are very few (savory) dishes which aren't improved by a few ribbons of pickled red onions. The balance of jalapeño, sugar, and vinegar makes them the perfect addition to roast pork, tacos, grilled cheese sandwiches, or fried eggs.

1.
Place jalepeño and onions in a medium mixing bowl. Heat vinegar, water, sugar, and salt in a small skillet over high heat, whisking until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil, then pour over onions. Press onions down with a spoon until submerged. Place a double layer of paper towels on top of onions and press down until completely saturated in liquid to keep onions submerged. Allow to sit until onions are softened and liquid has cooled, about 25 minutes. Onions will keep indefinitely in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
