A few favorites that I always have in the fridge would be pickled garlic, and thinly sliced red onions pickled. I toss a jalepeno into the liquid for some kick.

The onions are great on Taco's and make an excellent side for fish and rice.

YOu can buy yummy picked garlic at Korean supermarkets and pickled red onions sounds yummy. What do you pickle them in? Sulphites hadn't thought of that and goodness knows if they've been added or not. According to my ex most street food in Malaysia has MSG added to it. We ate at a Szechuan restaurant the other night (they also serve other Chinese dishes plus some Nyonya). We ordered the beef with ginger but it was so salty!!!!! They made us a fresh dish but my ex and her mum thought that the beef had already been salted or something and in the cooking process added more salt or MSG.

But I tell you what, when I first moved to San Diego from South Korea, I was always complaining to my exgf about the saltiness of food, especially pizza.
