Combine the onion, pepper, vinegar and salt in a large jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake until the salt is dissolved. Let the sauce "ripen" for at least 24 hours before serving, or preferably, 2-3 days. Pika will keep for several months at room temperature. Serve with stews and cornmeal dishes. Makes 2 cups.
