Any housewife knows that sometimes onions can really bring you to tears due to their special chemical composition.
That's why many people try to use proven tricks to avoid crying while working with vegetables.
What methods can be called the most effective?
Matches
This method can be safely called the most curious, but many people respond very positively to it. The specificity is that before cleaning and cutting the onion, you need to put a couple of matches in your mouth.
The "magic" is that matches are a source of sulfur, so there should be no tears.
Salt
It is believed that this food product will also prevent onions from bringing you to tears. You just need to cover the cutting board with a thin layer of salt and start cutting the onion.
Freezer
This method is one of the most popular. The onion needs to be peeled and put into the freezer.
Five minutes of cold will be enough.
Water
This method is also used quite widely. After cleaning the vegetable, you will need to treat it with cold water and start cutting.
