English Pickled Onions

Serves 10

Ingredients

Method

600 ml Water
65 g Salt (Kosher)
750 ml Cider Vinegar
1½ tbsp Pickling Spice
45 fl oz Sugar (Castor)

Peel the onions and place in a bowl. Dissolve the salt in the water by stirring to make a brine and pour over the peeled onions, cover and allow to sit in the brine for 24 hours.

Drain the onions and rinse them well. Divide the onions between the jars. In a saucepan heat the cider vinegar, sugar and pickling spices, bring them to the boil and allow to boil for 2 minutes so that the sugar has dissolved. Allow to cool slightly and then pour over the onions in the jars.

Seal the jars and allow 2 weeks for the flavours to develop before consuming.
