Why chilling of onoin avoid crying of eyes?
The reason onions irritate your eyes is because they are acid in their juice. Anything that prevents the acid fumes from reaching your eyes will help to avoid crying. Chilling the onion keeps the acid fumes from being quite so active when the onion is cut. It won't stop the fumes altogether, but it helps. A trick that works consistently for me is to make sure you have a breeze blowing across your work are while you cut your onions. A small fan or perhaps the ventilation fan on your stove might work.
