Boil the red onions in salted water for 1 minute, and drain. Pour the hot vinegar mixture over the onions. Allow the onions to cool in the vinegar solution until they are room temperature. Refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight. Keep covered and refrigerated for up to two weeks. Sweet Potato PureeScrub, and blot dry the potatoes. Pierce the skins with a fork or paring knife in a few places. Bake directly on a rack in the oven at 425 degrees until very tender and cooked through. Combine the cream and butter in small sauce pan, and bring to a simmer; set aside in a warm place. Halve the potatoes; scoop out the flesh, and puree in a food processor or pass through a ricer. Use a towel to hold the potatoes, as they will be very hot, and you want to do this as quickly as possible. Pour the cream and butter over the pureed sweet potatoes, and gently combine; add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately with the pork and pickled red onions. For added flavor, steep a piece of fresh ginger in the cream and butter mixture.
