½ cup|125 ml vegetable oil
1 (2-ounce|57-gram) jar capers, rinsed and drained
2 everything bagels, torn into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil

½ cup dill sprigs
Directions
- Make the pickled onions: Bring the vinegar, sugar, and ¼ cup|60 ml water to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook until the sugar has dissolved, then pour over the red onions. Leave to cool to room temperature before draining.
- Make the dressing: Whisk all ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Make the crispy capers: Heat the canola oil in a small skillet over medium. Add the capers and cook until crispy, about 2 minutes. Be careful, if they are still a little wet, they will burst and crackle when they hit the oil! Drain (you can reuse the oil in a dressing or something, if you like). 4. Make the salad: Heat the oven to 425°F. On a baking sheet, toss the pieces of bagel with the olive oil and salt. Bake until golden and crispy, 12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Transfer the bagel pieces to a large bowl along with the remaining ingredients. Add the pickled onions (drained), the capers, and the dressing. Toss well to combine and serve immediately.
