Cry me a...Vidalia?
user
Ok, so Vidalia onions don't actually make me cry, but the red and
the white ones usually do. I've heard that this won't happen if
your knife is sharp, but I use Cutco, and anyone who knows anything
about Cutco knows that they stay ultra sharp for quite a long
while. Now I have noticed that my eyes sting much less when I use
my Cutco, but do any of you Master Chef's (or plain old
kitchen amateurs like myself) know any other tricks to make
cutting onions a little less painful on the eyes? Thanks for your
help!

Report Abuseive got a good tip. if you freeze the onions for 5/10 minutes then if u cut them they wont make you cry.and they will unfreeze quickly so u dont have to worry about waiting forever.

Report AbuseI learned at work that if you don't talk or open your mouth during the whole process of peeling and cutting the onions you shouldn't have you eyes stinging. By the way, I love Cutco
