Hi darling, how are you feeling today? let's talk about onions, shall we?

I love onions, and more so the red onions, and since I learned of their health benefits in healing, I've made it a routine to make no-sugar pickled onions recipe almost every other week.

How about you, do you love onions? Do you like them raw or cooked? 

For me, I can hardly eat raw onions, I find them strongly bitter beside causing gas and bloating when I eat raw onions.

Since I started using pickled onions, I've found that I can enjoy two tablespoonfuls of no-sugar pickled onions each day without experiencing any digestive issue.

Do you have gas or feel bloated after eating raw onions? Try out this no-sugar pickled onion recipe it might help, I am crossing my fingers.

How to make sugar-free pickled onions recipe

Making this pickled onions recipe is so easy and quick

• You need to slice red onions and some garlic
• Submerge them in a mixture of lemon juice, vinegar, and water. 
• Be careful not to use too much lemon juice otherwise the onions will be cooked by the acidity leaving them too soft.
• Store them in the fridge and scoop a spoonful or so every day to improve your health.
•  Keep these no-sugar pickled onions up to 4 days in the fridge but the texture softens as the days go by

How to use the onion pickle juice

• Honestly, I drink it bit by bit. Since the pickled onions will leave some of their nutrients in the juice, I don't like draining those health benefits in the sink!
• You can use the juice to steam veggies or add it to cooking stew if you can't drink it.
• Add the onion juice into mashed potatoes.
