Ingredients
1 large onion
1 1/2 cups hot water
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup kosher salt
2 tsp hot sauce

Directions
Mix everything except the onion into the hot water.
The big jar or plastic tub you are going to store this in is a good choice.
Make sure all the sugar and salt dissolves.
Slice onion as thinly as possible.
Once the onion is sliced and the sugar and salt have dissolved, pack the onion into the container so that it is covered with the liquid.
Refrigerate at least 24 hours before using.
Can store in the refrigerator for weeks.
This is great to use on sandwiches and in salads to give them an extra kick.
Servings
Makes about 2 cups of pickled onion (approximately 16 servings)
