As the pickled onions I've made each year since 2020 have been so popular, I've been looking out for the pickling onions coming into season to do them again.
At the market a couple of weeks ago I picked up 3lb of them for £2, the same price as last year. They are now pickling and will be ready to eat in another 3 weeks or so.
As before, I followed Linda Ziedrich's "Joy of Pickling" recipe for "British Pub Pickled Onions".
Here they all are in a big bowl.
I heated 1l of malt vinegar with 4 tbsp of sugar dissolve it. I packed the onions into 3 jars layering with some sliced bay leaves, allspice and chilli flakes and poured the vinegar over.
I made some labels, but they are hard to put on jars the shape of mine so the labelling has come out a bit wonky.
But never mind, they'll be ready to eat by Christmas and will all get eaten over the next few months after that. Meanwhile I have 1/4 jar left of last year's to keep us going.
