PICKLED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Put the onions in a medium bowl. Combine the vinegar, sugar, coriander, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the onions, cover and set aside until cooled to room temperature.

• Chill 4 martini glasses in freezer. Fill a spray bottle with 1/4-inch vermouth, and spray the inside of each glass. Or pour a little vermouth in each glass, swirl it, then pour it out, so glass is just lightly coated.
• Place 3 or 4 pieces of onion in each glass (reserve remaining onion for drinks on another day). Fill a large cocktail shaker with ice, and pour gin over it. Shake vigorously. Strain into glasses. Serve.

Will keep for 6 months unopened, or 2 weeks in the fridge once opened.
