Nice and easy tasty recipe but from some comments think that some are mis-reading the recipe.

question - what is pickling spice, do you have to use it?and also where can i buy it??CHELSEA: you can buy pickling spice at all major supermarkets, or make your own using 6-8 spices (mustard seeds, allspice, black pepper, coriander, dill seed, cinnamon, cloves, bay leaf, chilli, cardamom.

Where can I buy small pickling onions in NZ?Chelsea Sugar:Small onions should be available in most large supermarkets.
Put the onions, salt and water in a large bowl. Cover and stand overnight.
Next day, drain the onions and rinse well under cold running water. Pack them into 500 ml sterilised jars.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a large saucepan. Stir over a medium heat as you bring the mixture to the boil. Then turn down the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Cool. Strain the cold vinegar mixture over the onions to cover completely, and seal the jars.
Tip You can customise pickled onions by adding sprigs or herbs, chillies, garlic, cloves or different spices to subtlely change the flavour.
