Yes please, going to try them all

You can use pearl onions or full-size onions that have been sliced for this recipe. These onions are fermented rather than pickled with vinegar.

2 tablespoons sea salt
4 cups water
3-4 cups pearl onions, peeled OR 2-3 onions, thinly sliced

To prepare brine, dissolve salt in water.
Place the onions in the jar and pour brine over onions, leaving 5cm head space.
If necessary, weigh onions down under the brine to keep them submerged.
Cover the jar with a loose fitting lid.
Culture at room temperature until you like the flavor and texture.
After approx. 3 days, put a tight lid on the jar and move to the fridge.

You can use whey from freshly made yoghurt to give this a head start or some liquid from fresh (not tinned) sauerkraut.

edited to add: Do not use iodised salt for this.
