Do you love onions, but hate to cut them, because of the way they sting your eyes? Here is a really quick tip... Cold onions don't sting nearly as bad! Did you know that? So- if you have the room, store onions in your fridge, (I use one of the produce bins,) then just pull them out and go to chopping, hazmat suit not required. If you don't have room in your fridge, stick an onion in the freezer for a few minutes before cutting it.
When you are ready to cut, slice of the stem end of the onion, but leave the root end in tact. This gives you something to hold, keeps the onion from falling apart, and also helps with the stinging.
Then slice the onion in half, peel off the outer layer of skin, and holding the root end, slice or chop as needed.
Happy onion chopping!
