I know that we have some Borg members who, like me, love to cook. And what could be better than cooking with beer? In case you missed it, there is a wonderful article on making jelly from beer in the latest edition of Brew Your Own magazine. [ http://byo.com/stories/issue/item/3202- ... brew-jelly ] I recently made a batch of pickled onions using a stout, and they turned out delicious! So I am excited to try a batch of Porter jelly once my recent batch of Perseverance Porter conditions. The possibilities are endless!

If you like pickled onions, they are delicious! I eat them straight out of the jar. Have also tried them as accompaniment with a beef roast and as a topper for a homemade bacon cheddar burger.

Stout Beer Pickled Onions Recipe

By Tammy Kimbler

Ingredients:

2 large yellow onions
12 oz bottle stout beer
1 c white vinegar
1 tbs kosher salt
1 tbs sugar
1 tbs mustard seed
1 tbs coriander seed
1 tsp juniper berries

Instructions:

Thickly slice the onions. Bring the vinegar and beer to a boil on the stove, then add the remaining ingredients and stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. Remove from heat and add the onions. Let sit, stirring occasionally, until the onions are pliable. Pack onions in to a clean quart jar, along with all the spices. Pour remaining liquid over the onions to cover. Add the lid and store in the refrigerator. The pickles will be ready in about 24 hours and will store in the fridge for a month or more.

Thanks! SWMBO probably won't be sitting next to me for awhile. I may need to try this with the black Rye-PA I still have left.

If Mashani would kindly drop by here and remind us (me :redface: ) which hops have a reputation for tasting of dill I'd love to try this with that. :idea:

Are you thinking about Sorachi Ace hops?

Not sure but if that's the one I think the pickling idea could be endless here using your thread as I love dill. I'd consider making the dill beers for just that purpose and be a happy camper.
