Quick Pickled Onion Tips
Choose Vinegar wisely
Using an admixture of apple cider vinegar and regular distilled vinegar makes these pickles taste indeed more intriguing. You can use whole distilled vineger if that is all you have at home.
Natural sweeteners to win
Choosing maple syrup or honey rather than regular sugar provides some redundant flavor and conspiracy while making these pickles naturally candied. I wouldn’t recommend making these pickles without any sweeteners-they’re well balanced with them, but relatively courtesan without them.
