- In a small saucepan, combine water, vinegar, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Thinly slice the red onion and cucumber. Place them in separate jars or containers.
- Pour the pickling liquid over the sliced vegetables, ensuring they are fully submerged. Let them sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or refrigerate for longer storage.
- In a bowl add ricotta cheese, diced pickles, capers, chopped dill, horseradish, and lemon zest and juice. Mix until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste with salt and pepper if needed.
- Slice the bagels in half and lightly toast them. Spread a generous amount of the sardine mixture on each toasted bagel half.
