These are great pickled onions! We use them for sandwiches, burgers, cold meat loaf or cold chicken or roast. Once the rings are gone, use the syrup in potato salad dressing or soups.

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 lbs. red onions
  • 18 whole cloves
  • 18 whole black peppercorns
  • 3 tsp. mustard seed
  • 1 1/2 tsp. celery seed
  • 2 cups white vinegar or cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp. ground turmeric
  • 1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon

Directions
  1. Peel the onions and slice them 1/4 " thick; separate the slices into rings. Divide the onion rings amoung 3 clean, dry pint canning jars.
  2. To the onions in each jar add 6 whole cloves, 6 peppercorns, 1 tsp. mustard seed and 1/2 tsp. celery seed.
  3. Combine the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, turmeric and cinnamon in a sstainless-steel or other non-reactive saucepan. Heat to boiling, then simmer 2 minutes.
  4. Fill the jars with the hot liquid, leaving 1/4 " of headspace. Remove any air bubbles by running a long thin knife blade or a cooking chopstick around the inside walls of the jars and add liquid if necessary to maintain the 1/4 " of headspace.
  5. For refrigerator storage - let the jars cool uncovered, then cover with a doubled sheet of plastic wrap and a cap, any kind, that fits the jar. Refrigerate for at least 2 weeks before serving. The pickles keep (and improve) for many months in the fridge.
  6. For sealed storage - After step 4, seal the jars with new two-piece canning lids following manufacturer's directions and process as you normally would. Let the pickles mellow for about a month before you serve them. They will keep for a year or more in a cool place.

This sounds really good! And I definitely know that leftover pickle syrup is great not only in potato salad, but in cole slaw, homeamade salad dressing, or whatever you would use vinegar in.


Sounds great.
