Ingredients
3mediumred onionspeeled and sliced (thinly)
1cupwatertap or filtered 1)
1tbspcoarse sea salt
Instructions
Transfer the onion slices in a jar and gently push them to pack and fill a whole jar.
Make the brine: dissolve the sea salt in water. Pour the brine over the sliced onions in the jar. Make sure that the onions are entirely covered. If the onions are not covered, you have to add more brine until the onions are all covered.
Seal with a lid. Store for the next 7 days in a dry place at room temperature. Open the jar every day to release the gases and make sure that the jar doesn't explode and then close again tightly.
Once open and used, store the jar in a fridge.
Notes
1) If you don't have enough brine to cover the onions in a jar, make more. Use the same ratio 1 cup water to 1 tbsp sea salt.
