Uncle Dave's Pickled Onions

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 0 mins | Course: Small Bites | Yield: 1 quart 

Sweet Maui and red onions are coupled with spicy jalapenos and Hawaiian salt. Pickled onions are the perfect condiment to that special dish, be it a favorite sandwich or taco, etc. Uncle Dave was the ultimate pickled onion aficionado. He’d have a pickled onion and crab sandwich for lunch multiple days a week. His directions amuse me; 2 heaping wooden spoonfuls of Hawaiian sea salt ;]

1 quart jar, half full of vinegar

2 heaping wooden spoonfuls of Hawaiian sea salt ( I got 3 Tbsp.)

1 Maui onion, sliced

1 red onion, sliced

2 jalapenos, halved

Pour vinegar half full into a clean quart jar. Add Hawaiian sea salt, about 3 Tbsp. full and stir. Add sliced onions until half full, then place sliced jalapenos decoratively around the edges of the jar. Finish adding the onions until the jar is full. My red onion was quite large and I only used half of it.
