Sweet Balsamic Onions 290g | Olives Et Al

A modern take on the pickled onion. Small, flat borettane onions steeped in balsamic vinegar until they are sweet, sharp and still crunchy.

Borettane are the flat Italian onions you see on antipasti platters. Olives Et Al pickle them in balsamic rather than malt vinegar, so they come out mellow and sweet with a tangy finish instead of eye-watering.

They belong on a cheese board or next to cold meats and a pork pie. Do not pour the liquor away when the onions are gone - a spoonful sharpens up a dressing or a pan of gravy.

FAQs

What should I serve them with?
Cheese, cold cuts, pâté, a ploughman's, or straight from the jar with a drink.

Are they very vinegary?
No. Balsamic is much softer and sweeter than malt vinegar, so they are mellow.

Olives Et Al have been making olives, kiln-roasted nuts, dressings, sauces and deli goods in Sturminster Newton, Dorset since 1993. The nuts are kiln roasted on site, which is why their products carry a may-contain warning for nuts, peanuts and sesame.
