Pickled Onions

Unread post by Stephen »

For all you pickled onion fans out there I thoroughly recommend these large crisp beauties. :thumbup:

Large jar (shown) £1.50

Hopefully they're not just a seasonal item

The best pickled onions are the ones you pickle at home. Can't beat them.

Funny that Stephen as I’ve had pickled onions everyday this week for my lunch…with of course blue stilton, garlic cheese and crackers.

My wife grows them I pickle them…I bought my pickling spices from Holland & Barrett and add my own secret ingredient of brown sugar…best in Shropshire apparently. :thumbup: :D

A friend of mine gave me a jar of his own made pickled onions recently, nearly blew my head off. Far too spicy for me.

I would normally buy Haywards Traditional pickled onions but they no longer sell them. Well happy with these ones which I think are as good if not better than Haywards.

Can't stand pickled onions that are soft.

We used to have tripe as kids. Awful stuff!! The best bit was a creamy white savoury sauce with onions made from the juices from the tripe. I vowed when I grew up I would never have it again and I haven't.

Love a good pickled onion if it's nice and crunchy and done in sweet vinegar.

I did that with the only oyster I have ever eaten and it came back two days later. Never again.
