If you wish to store it, as onion tends to leave it's smell behind which will then lead to spoilage of food, store it in a air-tight conatiner in a refrigerator but not for more than one day.

Can I make this just with the onion & water - no spices - then preserve it by putting in canning jars & water bath or pressure canning it? Would it be shelf stable & for how long? Would I process for caramelized onion times?
