How many of you ladies suffer from tears and eye pain while chopping your onions ? Well here are 3 tips for a tears free onion chopping
1. Cut your onions under water
Fill up a buck and cut your onions under water this will not allow any gas of escaping from the onions into your eyes
2. Refrigerate your onions before cutting them
Put your onions in the refrigerator 20 to 30 minutes before cutting them
3. Cut your onions next to a candle
or let's say 2 candles or a stronger flame, since the flame will suck the gas from the onion hopefully before it reaches your eyes
