How To Make refrigerator pickled onions

Step 1

Pack sliced onion into a one quart jar. Usually takes about 1 large red onion.

Step 2

Fill the jar with water to cover the onions then pour the water into a measuring cup.
Step 3

Note the amount then pour off 1/2 the water.
Step 4

Add vinegar to the water to bring it back to the original measure.
Step 5

Place the liquid in a saucepan and add the spices and garlic.
Step 6

Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes.
Step 7

Pour over the onions in the jar. If you are a little short of covering the onions you can add a little water.
Step 8

Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator. Keeps up to a month, if they don't disappear first!
