Pickled Red Onion is a tangy and vibrant condiment that adds a zesty punch to a variety of dishes. Thinly sliced red onions are soaked in a brine of vinegar, sugar, and salt, sometimes infused with spices like peppercorns, garlic, or herbs, to create a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory flavors. The onions take on a beautiful pink hue and a crisp texture, making them an eye-catching and flavorful topping for tacos, sandwiches, salads, or grilled meats. Quick and easy to prepare, pickled red onions can be stored in the refrigerator and enjoyed for weeks, enhancing the flavor profile of your favorite meals with a delightful burst of acidity.
