Sweet Spice Pickled Onions

On August 15, 2010

1 Red Onion [sliced in 1/8″ rings]
1 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 cup Water
1/4 cup Sugar
1/2 tsp Whole Coriander Seeds
1/2 tsp Allspice Berries
2-1/2″ Cinnamon Stick

Bring vinegar, water, sugar + spices to a boil in a large skillet. Add red onions, stirring until all turn bright pink + wilt slightly, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a glass jar + allow to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until ready to use.

These onions are great on just about anything + ready to eat as soon as they are cool.

4 Eggs [cage free, hard boiled]
2 Tbs Mayonnaise [organic]
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
1 Dill Pickle [medium, chopped]
Salt + Freshly Ground Black Pepper [to taste]
Smoked Spanish Paprika [don’t even think about any other tasteless paprika]

Cut eggs in half. Remove yolks into a bowl, then mash with mayo, mustard, salt + pepper. Chop egg whites. Add whites + pickles to yolks and mix well. Serve with a good sprinkle of paprika on top. Serve with crackers or as a sandwich on multi-grain bread with spinach, and red onion.

Makes about 2 sandwiches worth.
