Rarely does a dish exist without onions. If you immediately exclude baked goods and desserts, it turns out that onions are present everywhere.
Cooking soup, preparing fish or meat, stews, semi-finished products and other gastronomic delights lose their properties if you exclude onions.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova - a cook, fourth-class baker told how to chop onions and not cry.
First, the knife
Nothing will work if you are going to cut onions with a knife that is not the sharpest.
It is also not recommended to use a knife with many small teeth.
A knife with a sharp, thin blade is best suited for this procedure.
Secondly, water
Wet your cutting board and knife in cold water before you begin cutting.
Thirdly, onions
Before cutting the onion, place it in cold water for a couple of minutes.
If time permits, you can keep it in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
The low temperature will make the onion juice less irritating.
