How to Properly Cut an Onion [Video]

Do you know how to properly cut an onion??

In this video, my Tiny Oranges partner, Susanne (aka Your Sus Chef), shows us how she was taught in culinary school.

I have never seen this before! The technique is brilliant! Even my mother-in-law who is a fab cook learned something. I hope you do too!

Think you know how? Watch to find out!

And would LOVE your feedback on these vlogs! Please comment! Do you want to see more?

    1. Glad I am not alone! This new way is going to be so much faster! I was so excited to post this it was ridiculous!

  2. Awesome! Please do more of these!! I’ll admit I shared the same “technique” as you, Jen!

    1. Yay! I feel so happy that I am not the only one that did it that way!

    1. And you are a total cook!!!!!!! I am sooo happy Susanne did this video as even people that cook can learn something!

  6. That was most helpful!! Thank you!! (Jen, I do it just like you so you’re not alone:)

  7. Fantastic video. And I just have to say, YAY! I’m doing it the right way. All those hours I’ve logged watching the Food Network finally paid off!

  8. I love this video Jen. I’ve been doing it wrong all these years! After trying it myself, I was amazed at how easy it was – I even wrote about it my blog so others can watch your fabulous video. I hope you do more how to videos.

  9. I thought this was great! Although I already know how to cut an onion, I don’t know how to stop crying when I cut them! Any advice? I cry more than Ricky Schroder in the movie The Champ.

    1. @Johnny- have you tried putting piece of bread in your mouth? It acts to block the fumes a bit & absorbs them so they don’t make it up to your eyes. (but you’ll look super silly 😉

  10. LOVE this to teach all of us ameteurs a couple pro tips! & LOVE Suz- great info– can’t wait for the recipes! 🙂
