What i did was pickle onion i combine the vinegar, sugar and the spices and the peppers in a pot and bring it to a boil. After that i sliced onions placed it in a jar and pour the brine in jar with the sliced onion close lid and let in sit in the fridge for 10 hours.
- 2 cups cider vinegar
- pepper
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 dried thyme bayleaf
- Pepper corns
- 2 cloves garlic ( modifed version http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Vegetable-Pickling-Liquid-395572)
After 10 hours
The pickled onions tasted acidic,sweet, spicy and sour. It has a strong onion and vinegar smell. I tasted a bit of the brine and it was acidic. For the red onion it had a light red colour and for the yellow it had a light yellow colour. The taste is kinda similar to dill pickles because of the acidic taste. What makes this food unique is that the technique that is use to make pickled onions was used back in the day when refrigerator weren't invented. The pickled onions was a success the thing i would do differently is instead of pickling the onions i should ferment them instead of pickling because it may have a different taste.
