Rick Bayless Pickled Red Onions

  • These are the pink sparkle that decorates dishes and tables throughout the Yucatan. So common, in fact, that many Yucatecan cooks forget to list them as part of a traditional dish, knowing that they’ll always be around. It’s a simple process, but some recipe writers complicate things with the use of boiling water or the addition of beets or jamaica flowers to reinforce the red. The method I’m offering here is the time-tested one we’ve used for decades in our restaurants. They are obligatory on any of the pibil preparations or fish tikin xik, but I also love them on the enchilada-like papadzules, Yucatecan ceviches and any tacos with Yucatan flavors.

    Rick, I must tell you that much respect to you for NOT putting sugar in the mix. In Guadalajara where I am from we have a dish called tortas ahogadas, and our blend for that dish has oregano and pepper with salt as well as 50/50 vinegar and water. and I will admit, I do put habanero in it too. Superb condiment. burgers , hot dogs, chochinita, carnitas, you name it. it goes well with all. Thanks

      He didn't put sugar in it (?) In Yucatan we make it exactly like Rick made it.He mentioned it several times it was how it's done here, we don't put habanero often because all our sauces are habanero based.

    Rick, you always know the best way to cook everything. I've made red onions with vinegar and it never tastes as good as restaurants. The answer is limes! I'm a gringo living in Mexico, just like you did. I'm always looking for ways to cook Mexican food better than I can buy outside. And you always deliver! I never go to restaurants anymore because my house has the best dishes. Even the neighbors know, they said when I cook it smells like a five star restaurant.
