Pickled onions are a tangy, crunchy condiment commonly enjoyed in various cuisines, including British, American, Mexican, and Indian dishes. They are made by immersing peeled onions, often sliced or whole, in a brine solution containing vinegar, water, salt, sugar, and spices. This process not only preserves them but enhances their flavor, creating a balance of sourness and subtle sweetness. Nutritionally, pickled onions are low in calories but rich in antioxidants derived from the onions themselves. They also provide small amounts of vitamins such as vitamin C and minerals like potassium. However, they may contain significant amounts of sodium due to the pickling brine, which could be a concern for those monitoring their salt intake. Pickled onions are a flavorful way to add zest to meals and can serve as a probiotic source when naturally fermented rather than vinegar-pickled.
