Main Ingredients
- 5 medium onions
- 1/2 head of cauliflower (approx. 300g)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the vegetables. Peel the onions and cut them into bite-sized pieces (about 2-3 cm). Break the cauliflower into small florets. After washing and draining them, pack the onions and cauliflower into sterilized glass jars, layering them. Ensure not to pack the jars too tightly; leave a little space.
Step 2
Now, let’s make the delicious pickling liquid. In a pot, combine 2 cups of soy sauce, 2 cups of vinegar, and 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir well to dissolve the sugar. Start heating over medium heat, stirring with a spatula until the sugar is completely dissolved. Once the sugar is melted, turn off the heat and let it cool slightly. Pouring it warm rather than piping hot will help the vegetables retain their crispiness.
Step 3
Pour the cooled pickling liquid over the vegetables in the prepared jars, ensuring they are fully submerged. Covering the ingredients completely with the liquid will ensure even pickling and prevent spoilage. Seal the jars tightly and store them in the refrigerator. You can start enjoying the delicious Cauliflower and Onion Soy Sauce Pickles after 2-3 days. The flavor will deepen and become even more delicious over time!
