Pickled Onions and Cornbread

kathrynn · Jan 2, 2013

A friend of mine has a food blog. She is in Southern Living Magazine, Southern Family mag and has even been on Paula Deen's Food Network show.

Here is a link to what she posted today. Just thought I would share! Will "put meat on your bones!"

Very interesting! No idea if I would like it or not but I'm willing to give it a try - thanks for the link

Beans and smoked meats work so well together.....don't know if these would be better than just fresh onions or not! :biggrin:

That's the part I'm not sure about. I will never know if I don't give it a try though... Worst case scenario is that I only make it once!

I know! Her Chicken Stew recipe is the bomb. Going to try it with some smoked chicken left overs. Don't know about this one...posted it for grins and giggles. Plus...to show yall her website. Has some great easy Southern Comfort food on there.

When I lived at the coast there was an old guy that pickled herring every year. At the time I wasn't a big pickled herring fan, but I loved the pearl onions that were in the jar. So the next year and every year until he passed away, I got 12 jars of pickled pearl onions!!! Purple onions, walla walla, and red onions are really good too!!!

I may be in the minority but this all pretty common for our household. We always have a jar or container of pickled onions in the refrigerator, sometimes 2 or 3 varieties. They make a great side dish for many things. My favorite are Mexican pickled red onions with minced habanero pepper. Sometimes I substitute sour orange juice for part of the vinegar.

We are planning a crock pot full of beans and ham on Wednesday. We always sprinkle raw onions over the beans as we chow down. I feel the same as you about if these will be better but plan on making them on Tuesday, letting them sit in the fridge overnight to maximize the flavor, and having them on the beans. Might experiment later with some pickling spices and the onions for the fridge.
