Onion salad with vinegar
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Don't rush to serve the freshly prepared onion salad; let it chill for at least 1 hour so the vinegar can neutralize the vegetable's bitterness and make the onion slices softer and juicier. If desired, you can prepare the salad in advance and store it in the refrigerator, tightly covered with a lid or wrapped in plastic wrap. Serve chilled.
