Here's a little trick for when you're cooking dinner this holiday: To keep your eyes from stinging while you're chopping onions, put a piece of bread in your mouth and let it hang out. Apparently, it really works! Who would have thought?

It may or may not work, I know not. But it most certainly WILL make you look like a dork.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Alton Brown, it doesn't work. I think he said cutting them underwater or leaving your gas stove burner on would help, but not enough to make up for the annoyance of either of those. hehe :)
ReplyDeletethis pic creeped me out, a little hitchcockish (psycho) I put my onions in the freezer before I cut them up but I haven't tried any of the other suggestions!
