Marinated Green Onions for Winter
Description
Homemade preserves keep for a long time. Pickled green onion prepared for winter may turn out a little less green, but it is no less nutritious and tasty than fresh. The marinade removes excess bitterness, making the onion crisp and sweet-tart. Give it a try—it is a very tasty preserve. Serve at the table or store in the pantry.

2. Make the marinade. Put water on the stove with pepper, dill sprigs, and a bay leaf; dissolve the salt and sugar. When it comes to a boil, add the vinegar, stir, and strain through cheesecloth directly into the jars with the onions. Seal with sterilized lids for winter storage.
