To get rid of "onion breath" - eat several sprigs of vinegar or salt-dipped parsley. You can also chew on fennel seeds or coffee beans. You now have a "different" breath!
If you chop onions from the top, not the root end, you will not cry.
A wet onion is easier to peel than a dry one.
If you need the juice of an onion, squeeze half an onion with the skin on it. Use a lemon squeezer.
When you need only a small portion of an onion, do not peel the whole onion. Cut off the size you need and peel it. The remaining portion will keep longer with the skin on it in the refrigerator.
One large onion equals about one cup chopped onion.
One medium onion equals about 3/4 cup chopped onion.
