Onion Torshi
Onion Torshi (ترشی پیاز), also known as onion pickles, is a type of torshi that is appreciated by many for its petite white onion pearls that bring elegance to your table as part of a cheese plate or side of a dish. HK's Onion Torshi has an emphasis on being crunchy, light and presentable. This torshi is also vegan, gluten-free, GMO-free and handmade with no preservatives.
Similar to HK's other torshis, fresh organic ingredients are mixed with the onion pearls in a large container. At this stage, our organic waste is composted. The pearls are then mixed in apple cider vinegar mixture and hand-packed into jars. Of course, they are delicately fermented over a period of 7 days so that the pickles mature into pearls with beautiful pink hue on them. For HK team, making Onion Torshi takes around 12 hours to complete.
