Hot-Pink Pearl Onion Pickles
- 1 1/2 cups white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons coriander seeds
- 2 teaspoons dried tarragon
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon dried mint
- 8 ounces pearl onions, peeled, halved
- 1/2 small beet, peeled, halved
- Bring vinegar, sugar, coriander seeds, tarragon, salt, and mint to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar and salt. Reduce heat to a simmer and add onions and beet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions soften slightly, about 3 minutes. Pluck out and discard beet (the onions will continue to take on color as they sit). Transfer onions and brine to a 1-qt. jar or a nonreactive container and let cool. Cover and chill at least 2 hours before serving. The flavor will mellow as it sits.
