Pickled Green Onions Recipes

MRS. WHEELBARROW'S PICKLED GREEN ONIONS

Steps:

• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes.
• Stir peppercorns, celery seed, mustard seed, and allspice berries together in a small bowl. Divide spices evenly between the prepared canning jars.
• Pack onions vertically into jars, alternating tips-up and tips-down to fit onions snugly.
• Bring water, vinegar, and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Pour hot liquid over onions into jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area. Let onions pickle for at least 1 month before eating.

PICKLED GREEN ONIONS RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat water, vinegar, and salt in medium saucepan over med-low heat until all salt is dissolved.
• Set aside and let cool until ready to use.
• While water, vinegar, and salt are coming to a boil cut the ends off of the green onions.
• Cut the tops off of the green onions right where it starts to look like a 'fork in the road.' Save these for fresh chives.
• Add peppercorns, mustard seeds, dried dill, and crushed red pepper (optional) to a 1 quart mason jar.
• Stuff the cut onions into the jar. Pack them in tight.
• Pour liquid from the saucepan over the onions. Leave about 1 inch headspace. Liquid should still be a little hot/warm. You want this so it "cooks" the onions a bit.
• Let cool to room temperature.
• Put a lid on it and stick it in the fridge.
• Should be ready in 12 hours but the best flavor is 3-7 days!

HOISIN CHICKEN WITH QUICK PICKLED VEG AND GREEN ONION PANCAKES

Steps:

• For the pancakes: Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour in the boiling water and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and allow it to cool slightly. Knead the dough until smooth, about 2 minutes, adding more flour if needed. Cover with a clean kitchen towel to rest for 30 minutes.
• For the chicken: Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and scatter with the five spice. Add the sesame and canola oil to the pan and sear the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and transfer to a sheet pan.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the hoisin, soy, vinegar, ginger, garlic and toasted sesame seeds in a small bowl. Drizzle over the chicken then transfer to the oven. Cook for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened and the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
• For the pickles: Whisk together the vinegar, honey, fish sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds in a large bowl. Add the carrots, cucumbers and green onions. Toss to coat and set aside.
• For the pancakes, place a stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Cut the dough into 16 equal pieces, and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep moist.
• Slightly flatten a piece of dough into an oval approximately 10 centimeters by 5 centimeters (about 4 by 2 inches) and scatter about a teaspoon of green onions to cover the surface. Roll the dough up starting at one long side to form a tight cylinder. Coil the cylinder into a tight spiral, resembling something like a tiny cinnamon bun and gently press the dough in your hand again to form a small disc. Return the now green onion-filled dough under the towel to rest, while you prepare the other pieces in the same way.
• Roll out a disc into a very thin circle on the floured work surface, approximately 12 to 14 centimeters (5 to 6 inches) round. Lightly oil both sides with sesame oil.
• Add to the heated pan and cook for about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you continue to roll and cook the remaining pancakes.
• To serve, slice the chicken into 1 centimeter (about 1/2-inch) thick slices and transfer to a platter along with the pickles and green onion pancakes.
