Pickled Onions
Pickled onions are thinly sliced red or pearl onions preserved in a vinegar-based brine, typically flavored with salt, sugar, and spices. The pickling process softens their pungency while maintaining a crisp texture, creating a tangy-sweet condiment that adds bright acidity to dishes. Though low in calories, they often contain significant sodium from the brine, making portion awareness important for sodium-restricted diets. These vibrant garnishes are particularly popular in Mexican cuisine, sandwiches, and salads for their flavor-enhancing qualities.
