Pickled Onions

Pickled onions are onions that have been preserved in a vinegar-based brine, often with added spices and sugar. This process preserves the onions, giving them a tangy, slightly sweet flavor and a firm texture. They are commonly used as a condiment, accompaniments to cheese or charcuterie, or added to salads and sandwiches to enhance flavor. The acidity from the vinegar not only preserves the onions but also adds a sharp, flavorful punch, making pickled onions versatile for various culinary applications.
