I’m 41 years old. I’ve been watching food shows and content religiously since I was a teenager. This is the first time I’ve seen somebody chopping onion this way and my mind has just been blowing. This makes 1000 times more sense than anything else I’ve ever seen or ever done.🤣👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

What I don’t understand is why everybody puts their onions on the cutting board before peeling them. You have a peeling knife for a reason, mr 25 years as a cook. There might still be dirt or soil on the vegetables that grows in the dirt. Don’t let them touch the cutting board before peeling them

The better way is to keep the root to hold it together and cut it from top to bottom (root)

bold of you to assume my knives are that sharp to effortlessly cut through an onion. 😂

The only thing that I do differently is to take off that first tough layer under the skin. It's not worth keeping in the mix. You're really not losing that much onion. 🙂

That’s the way that I do it, been a chef for 2 years now but whenever I’m cooking at home I always let the onion sit in water for 5-10 minutes before cutting it. It actually doesn’t make you cry when you cut it

Are you kidding me? It doesn't matter whether you cut sideways first and then lengthwise, or vice versa. 😂

nope.. grate your onion right into your food ppl. you lose to much juices and nutrients on a cutting board like this guy. 🙄
