Cutting Onions

As a person who cooks most of his meals, I have cut a bunch of onions. However, I don’t usually eat a full onion in each meal. The remaining onion, I put in the refrigerator for later use. Through my experience, I am more likely to cry when I cut the non refrigerated onion than when I cut the refrigerated onion. After looking online, it seems like other people have come to the same conclusion.

So, if you wanted to cut onions without crying as much and you stumbled upon this blog post and did not see any of the other tear prevention techniques for cutting onions in various other websites, then I can tell you that chilling your onions is a valid strategy for onion tear prevention.
