These zingy pickled onions are great for salads, burgers and tacos.

Pickled Red Onions

onion,

apple cider vinegar

brown sugar

coriander seeds,

salt and black pepper

Put the onions in a medium bowl. Combine the vinegar, sugar, coriander, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the onions, cover and set aside until cooled to room temperature.

This was a great classic pickling recipe ! I only had 1 tbsp of brown sugar and the end result still came out perfect- not to sweet but gave it a good flavor. The coriander seeds are key in this ! 

These are yummy and so easy. I didn’t have coriander so I used cumin and they were absolutely delicious on our pulled pork sandwiches.  They keep well in the fridge too. 

Made these tonight. Delicious! I did not find them too salty or too sweet. I also added 1/4 tsp of pickling spice to the vinegar solution. Next time I make these, I will probably add a small amount of tumeric to it as well. I used a zip top bag, so that there was adequate liquid, but next time I will double or triple the solution, so that I can put the leftovers in a small container to keep in fridge. Thanks for the recipe!<br />I would appreciate it if you would consider making the recipe format available for printing without an image or a much smaller image option. This will help those of us who print the recipes off and put in binders.

It’s a simple recipe and it delivered a delicious product but I think you need more than 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar to adequately cover the sliced onion (at least I did). I didn’t have coriander seed but I had ground and it worked just as well however, I used half as much as the recipe called for. Next time I’d probably use only one tablespoon of brown sugar as I’d prefer less sweet.  Because I’m not a fan of oversalting either, I also did not use the amount of salt specified in the directions and oddly omitted from the ingredients list! 

These onions were really good and more importantly super easy! I didn’t have coriander seeds, so I added a pinch of ground coriander instead. Onions were used to top off some fish tacos! Will be my go to recipe for pickled onions!

I added roasted beets to this mixture. Excellent! 

Love this recipe and they don’t have to sit long before the flavors are infused.

Tasted great! Not too sweet and pretty easy to make.
