Save Yourself Some Tears With This Revolutionary Onion Cutting Technique

First, you should set an onion on a cutting board with its root facing the ceiling. Then, make vertical cuts from the onion’s top to bottom around the entire perimeter of the vegetable’s skin.

Once you have completed a full rotation of cuts, simply turn the onion on its side. Finally, hold the root with one hand and begin slicing vertically with the other.

You will be left with a perfectly diced onion and no sacrificed tears! What a dream.

Melanie’s Instagram Reel displaying the method has since gone viral, garnering over 13.5 million views, gaining seven hundred and ninety-two thousand likes, and spurring over five thousand comments.

Everyone from beginners in the kitchen to experienced chefs was blown away.
