1 cup vinegar (I prefer rice vinegar – its smoother with not as sharp a bite)
½ cup olive oil
½ cup pure cane sugar
¼ cup finely chopped onion**
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon ground mustard
Fresh ground black pepper to taste
Put all ingredients in a jar with a tight fitting lid.
Shake well.
Store leftovers in refrigerator.
Makes 2 ½ cups.
** What type of onion should you use?
Green onion will give you more kick.
Red will give a little heat and a little sweet
Videlia will give you a sweeter flavor
Yellow or Spanish will give you more of a traditional onion flavor
