For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of curry powder to 1 teaspoon. Feel free to experiment with other spices! A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a pleasant heat. Ensure your canning jars are properly sterilized to prevent spoilage. Boil jars and lids for 10 minutes before filling. These pickled onions are delicious served with cheese and crackers, added to salads, or used as a condiment for grilled meats.
