    Everything I read online basically said for such a small amount that 1 teaspoon of salt would be fine so I went with that. I did this in a 12oz mason jar and I just dissolved the salt into 1 cup of water and poured it over once I packed the onions in the jar. It was definitely a good amount as these were bubbling like crazy when I checked them the next day!

    If I do these again I may use red onions since that is what almost every recipe I found called for, I just happened to have white onions on hand at the time

    After 24 hours it tastes pretty awesome! It’s sweet and tart and juicy. The flavor reminds me of something I had as a kid but I can’t think of what but I’ve been picking at the jar all day I think I’m hooked lol to me it tastes like it would be good on ice cream or maybe with some kind of sweeter cheese. Some of the larger pieces were still a little too sour so I’m making another batch with just a little more sugar

    The habanero onion mix is really versatile! Well with the last batch I added some to some Mediterranean pasta salad, added it to sandwiches, mixed it into green salads from the grocery store, put it on tacos, and even added some to an otherwise lackluster Lean Cuisine lol

    The pickling process and the onions taes a little bit of the sharp edges off the habanero but still leaves them pretty spicy which I like, and the leftover pickling solution is basically like vinegar hot sauce afterwards!
