Ingredients

  • 1 large red onion (or 2 small)
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar (preferably raw and unfiltered )
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (approx. 1/2 large lemon)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoons peppercorns
  • 1 clove garlic (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Add all ingredients but the onions to a mason jar and stir well to combine.

  2. 2

    Peel and slice the red onion. *I prefer thin slices, but feel free to do this to your preference.

  3. 3

    Add the red onion slices to the mason jar, pressing them down into the apple cider mixture until they’re submerged. If you need to, top off with a little extra apple cider vinegar until all the onions are covered.

  4. 4

    Stir well or cover the jar with a lid and shake, then set it in the fridge for at least 8 hours. Pickled red onion will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
