In order to prevent crying, it helps to understand why it happens. There is a chemical reaction that occurs when you cut an onion; you damage the onion's cells, and the enzyme (Syn-ropanethial-S-oxide) that escapes acts as a lachrymatory agent. When that agent hits your eyes, it mixes with your tears to make sulfuric acid, and your tear ducts activate in an attempt to wash out the contamination.
So, that being said:
wear goggles so no juice of the onion goes in your eyes
is order to avoid crying 1.wear glasses 2.wash while cutting
To peel onions without crying, you can try chilling the onion in the fridge before peeling, cutting the onion under running water, or wearing goggles to protect your eyes from the onion's fumes.
You wont get same taste of onion if you boil it. But yes it will prevent you from crying.
I assume your asking "cutting onions", The simplest way I've noted is to turn on the stove fan and let it pull the air away from you as you work on cutting the onion and then wash your hands and tools used.
I'm pretty sure that your gum tastes very... flavory or aomething and so it is overwhelming the smell of onion or something. (sorry.)
no UNLESSSS u use googles :D
no
sharpen your knife before hand and rinse the onion in hot water for about 3-5 mins before hand also, its what we do at work
Onion:When we cut onion 2 chemicals like sulfoxides and enzymes to form gas when this gas reach our eye it makes cry now usually to avoid crying we wash the onion then we see crying chemicals if we make next onion we will wear goggles to protect our eyes thus gas do not reach our eyes.
To cut an onion into wedges, first cut off the top and bottom ends of the onion. Then, cut the onion in half from top to bottom. Lay each half flat on the cutting board and cut into wedges by slicing perpendicular to the layers of the onion.
yes it is look on www.About.com and type 8th grade science projects it is one of them
