The Jar That Changed My Sandwiches Forever
Onion & Purple Cabbage Pickle
Yields: 1 x 500ml jar
Ingredients
½ head purple cabbage, thinly sliced
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp olive oil
10–15 whole black peppercorns
5–6 garlic cloves
½ cup apple c***r vinegar (or red w**e vinegar)
1 cup hot water
Method
Thinly slice the purple cabbage and onions.
In a separate mixing jar/bowl, combine the apple c***r vinegar, salt, sugar, and olive oil. Mix well.
Layer the sliced cabbage and onion into your 500ml jar, pressing down gently with tongs after each layer to remove air bubbles and gaps.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the layered vegetables, then top with the hot water, making sure everything is submerged.
Add the garlic cloves and black peppercorns on top.
Seal the jar tightly and give it a gentle shake to mix everything together.
Let it rest overnight (or a minimum of a few hours) before using , flavor deepens the longer it sits.
