PICKLED CIPOLLINI ONIONS IN SHERRY
I can find Cipollini onions at Trader Joes.Cooking Light, SEPTEMBER 2003 "Serve these traditional English-style sweet-sour-spicy pickled onions as a first course with cheese, sliced or chopped in a salad, or thinly sliced and heated with a ribeye steak. Boiling the onions in salted water keeps them crisp. Let them sit a month to absorb the subtleties of the pickling liquid. Keep the spices whole to prevent clouding and sediment."
