I love having Pickled Onions on hand, we use them on everything! Sandwiches, salads, tacos, pork steaks, pulled pork, burgers, kofta, black eyed peas….etc. Honestly anything heavy tasting that just needs a little brightening up! They don’t have as strong of a flavor as Pickles, so I think they are more versatile.
