Instructions
Julienne the onions and divide them between three 10 oz. mason jars. Place the peppercorns and garlic in each jar if including them.
Over medium heat, mix the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan ad let it simmer. Continue to stir until the salt and sugar dissolve completely (about five minutes). Let it cool, and pour over the onions in the jars. Set jars aside to cool to room temperature. Then store the onions in the fridge.
Your pickled onion will be ready to eat once they're bright pink and tender - we recommend letting them sit overnight. They will keep in the fridge for up to two weeks.
Notes
Use four small red onions or two large red onions to fill up your Mason jars.
Instead of 10 oz. jars, you can use two16 oz. Mason jars.
