Ingredients
- 3 red onions, sliced thin
- 200ml cider vinegar
- 3 tbsp Sweet Sting Hot Honey
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp coriander seeds
- 1 bay leaf
Method
- 01
Pack the sliced onion into a clean jar. It will look like far too much. It is not.
- 02
Warm the vinegar, hot honey, salt and spices until the honey dissolves — do not boil it.
- 03
Pour over the onions, pressing them under the liquid.
- 04
Cool, lid on, into the fridge. Edible in an hour, properly good the next day.
- 05
Cut the vinegar by a third if you like it sweeter — the hot honey already brings acidity of its own.
