A tart and tangy addition…
Ingredients

- 3/4 cup rice vinegar, white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 8 black peppercorns
Instructions
- Boil a kettle of water.
- Slice the onions into thin circles (approximately 1/8 inch thick). Place onions into a sieve or colander and pour boiling water over them to slightly blanch, then let them drain.
- In the container that you will use to store the pickled onions, place the garlic, sugar, salt, peppercorns and vinegar then stir until dissolved.
