Ingredients

Instructions

0 of 4 done
  1. Step 1

    Peel the onion and cut it in half lengthwise. Place cut side down on a cutting board and cut into half moons using a sharp knife. Slice thicker for more crunchy texture, or thinner for a softer texture. Alternatively, use a mandolin slicer to slice the onion into thin restaurant quality onions. Place the onions in a large jar and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Place the vinegar, water, honey and salt in a small sauce pan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the honey has dissolved and the mixture is warm.

  3. Step 3

    Pour the brine over the the onion slices in the jar and let stand until the water has cooled. Cover tightly with a lid and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 30 minutes or overnight. The longer the onions sit in the brine, the more bright pink they will become.

  4. Step 4

    Serve over burgers, sandwiches, tacos, salads and more. Enjoy!
