Pickled Green Onions Recipe-Helen Author: Jen @ The Easy Homestead
3 Cups Filtered Water 1.5 Cups White Distilled Vinegar 1.5 Tablespoons of Salt 20-30 Green Onions (4-5 bunches) ½ teaspoon Whole Black Peppercorns ½ teaspoon Mustard Seeds ½ - 1 teaspoon Dried Dill (depending on taste) ½ teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper (optional)
Instructions
Heat water, vinegar, and salt in medium saucepan over med-low heat until all salt is dissolved. Set aside and let cool until ready to use. While water, vinegar, and salt are coming to a boil cut the ends off of the green onions. Cut the tops off of the green onions right where it starts to look like a 'fork in the road.' Save these for fresh chives. Add peppercorns, mustard seeds, dried dill, and crushed red pepper (optional) to a 1 quart mason jar. Stuff the cut onions into the jar. Pack them in tight. Pour liquid from the saucepan over the onions. Leave about 1 inch headspace. Liquid should still be a little hot/warm. You want this so it "cooks" the onions a bit. Let cool to room temperature. Put a lid on it and stick it in the fridge. Should be ready in 12 hours but the best flavor is 3-7 days!
Notes If you like it hot add crushed red pepper. If you like to taste a lot of dill then add 1 teaspoon. Little dill ½ teaspoon. Stays good for up to one month in the fridge.
