    ONIONS

    Recipe






    To make them last longer, store partial onions wrapped in the refrigerator with the root end intact.
    To chop onions the easy way, start by cutting off the stem end, then peel the skin back to the root, KEEPING THE SKIN ATTACHED. Holding the skin to steady the onion, cut in half nearly to the root end, then at right angles to the first cut, 3 or 4 more cuts nearly to the root end. Next, still holding the root end by the skin, slice finely across the onion from the stem end, the result will be nicely chopped onion. And it takes longer to explain than to do it!

    Many people object to chopping onions because it takes time and makes you cry and this is a shame as loads of dishes require chopped onion as a basis. So to avoid this task every time you cook, take 20 onions or so, chop them
    all and freeze them in a plastic bag. Any time a recipe requires onion, just take a handful out of the freezer.

    Rub a cut white potato over your hands to rid your hands of onion odor.

    Rubbing your hands over stainless steel, like the back of a spoon, will also rid them of onion odor.
