We have to peel onions every day, because without them it’s difficult to cook anything decent.

Therefore, you need to learn to do this as comfortably as possible.

As it turns out, it is not necessary to cry at all: some tricks will help you avoid tears.

What do they consist of?

Don't forget about the refrigerator

If you keep the onion and the knife in the refrigerator for at least a quarter of an hour, then peeling it will not cause any particular difficulties.

Due to the cold temperature, the onion loses its "aggressive" feature.

Cold water

If there is no time to wait, then ordinary cold water will come to the rescue. We put the knife in a container with it. If desired, you can even add ice.

We do not remove the container. It will be useful to us during the cleaning and chopping process: the knife should be periodically moistened with water.

Unusual tips

Some recommend chewing gum while working with onions. Others advise peeling the vegetable only with the windows open.

It is also believed that you can simply light a candle.
