Here's my recipe, adapted from numerous others found on YouTube:

1: Cut one red onion along the grain to minimize cell damage, 2: Simmer the onion slices in water a few minutes to soften them, 3: Put the slices into a 16oz mason jar, 4: Fill the jar half with white vinegar and half with water, 5: Add a pinch or two of Diamond Crystal salt and a pinch or two of cane sugar. 6: Refrigerate overnight.
