Dietician Tip

To ensure food safety, sterilize the jars and lids by simmering them in water for 5 minutes. Let them cool to room temperature before filling.

Directions

Trim off the woody ends of the asparagus and cut spears into lengths that will fit into the jars. Place spears in a strainer, wash well and drain. Trim onions. Combine all ingredients in air-tight containers. Refrigerate up to 4 weeks.

  • 1/4 cup pearl onions
