Notes
Storing: Store in a lidded jar in the fridge to keep fresh for 2-3 weeks. Be sure the onions are completely submerged in the pickling mixture so that they stay fresh.
If you have time, allow them to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes so the flavours can start to develop, before placing them in the fridge. (optional)
