I read something that said to burn a candle while cutting an onion. I tried it and it actually worked.
Another method is to cut the onion under water.
when cutting onions place your cut pieces into cold water to maintain the tear gases.
When you peel your onion dip it in cold water before cutting and continue to dunk it periodically as you cut to keep those tear gases to a minimum
onion is also good for those burned rice situations-- just cut an onion in half and put it into the pot of burned rice to eliminate that burned rice odor
-- This may not always work with the taste of burned rice but at least you can somewhat control the odor.
Well...
1. you can chew gum
2. you can wear goggles
3. refrigerate the onions before cutting them
4. peel them under cool water6
5. continually rinse the chopped onions with cold water while cutting them
Yes. Also, if you chew bubblegum while cutting the onion it is supposed to prevent you from crying
.Clear cutting takes all of the trees in an area while strip cutting takes a narrow strip of trees and allows it to regenerate.
both the cell will swell and rbc will burst easily while cells of onion peal will resist the bursting to some extenct
Both onion cells and nerve cells have the same look. Obviously they have both got cells in them and have nerly everything the same.
A cell is hypertonic when it has a greater concentration than its environment, but, when a solution is hypertonic, it has a greater concentration than the cell it is being compared to. For example, a 5% salt solution is hypertonic to an onion cell while the onion cell is hypotonic to the solution.The salt concentration of an onion cell must be less than 5% - actually its somewhere between 1.6 and 1.3 percent.This question should not be in genetics, but I don't feel like switching it.
is order to avoid crying 1.wear glasses 2.wash while cutting
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.
* Have a fan blow gently in your direction to disperse the onion-juice gases you're creating from cutting the onions. * You can rinse the onion with cool water after removing the outer layers. Alternatively, you can put the crust of a loaf of bread in your mouth while cutting the onion. * I have no idea why the following works... but it does: Stick your tongue out and bite gently on it while you slice the onions. * Keep onions in the fridge for an hour before preparing. * Light a candle while cutting the onion; this burns the gases that cause your eyes to tear.

Sulfuric
To avoid crying while chopping an onion, you must first remove the bottom portion of the onion. This is where the roots come out and is the place that contains tear-inducing agents. You must remove it correctly or else you'll still cry.
chill the onions before cuttin it
Cutting the skin while cooking is very common. It can be avoided by watching the hands near sharp objects at all times.
Tin is the metal that does not she tears while crying
chilling an onion keeps in the juice and prevents it from evaporating/vaporizing as quickly. Freezing the onion actually holds it in place completely Chewing gum is sort of a gimmick; it keeps your mouth open and breathing more than usual. This means that the onion fumes aren't all entering you nasal cavity in as much of a concentration and thus reduces the effect.
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:Wearing goggles is the most obvious answer. It may look a little silly, but it's the easiest way to prevent the onion's enzyme from reaching the eyes.Sharpening your knife beforehand limits the damage to the onion cells, thus releasing fewer gases.Spraying your cutting board with vinegar slows down the chemical reaction. It does, however, make your onions smell/taste like vinegar.Always placing the cut side down will minimize the chemicals released into the open air.Cutting onions under the kitchen vent will remove some of the chemicals from the air.And finally, try not to form an emotional bond with your onion.
A cut onion releases an irritant into the air which irritates our eyes, the body's response in turn is to try to get rid of the irritant through the production of tears. You can try one of two things to have your eyes water less when cutting onions...one is to cut your onion under a stream of water from your tap, the other is to not cut the end of the onion that has the roots on it...this will result in less irritant being released. kutay
