How to slice an onion without crying
-
So 40 years of cooking, and I discover this (maybe other people have too) - slice the onion on a plate in the sink with a gently running stream of water streaming over the onion. Prevents all that stray spray of slicing / dicing / chopping. The stream of water, not the plate. :laugh:

I must try this. My eyes hurt like hell when cutting onions. So much that I sometimes even need two sessions to cut a single onion. The pain is simply unbearable and I have to go outside until I can keep my eyes open again.
