Pickled Pearl Onions

The scent of cinnamon sticks and the heat of red chili peppers infuse these sweet-and-sour pearl onion pickles. For a festive look, we use a combination of white, red and gold pearl onions. They are a great condiment with any of the meat or fish dishes in this book. Try them with a simple roast pork, chicken or turkey. A little bowl set out with cocktails will disappear fast.
