As soon as Vidalia or other sweet onions are available each year, I make this salad. Everyone loves it, and I've received many requests for the recipe.

Ingredients

1 pound sweet onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons dill weed
1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Place the onions in a large bowl. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar, oil, dill and salt; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Pour over onions and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours. Serve with a slotted spoon.
