You wont get same taste of onion if you boil it. But yes it will prevent you from crying.
The dependent variable in this experiment would be the amount of crying produced by cutting each onion, measured in tears shed or self-reported discomfort levels. The chilling method (freezer, refrigerator, kitchen) would be the independent variable being tested to observe its impact on reducing tears while cutting the onion.
When cutting onions, cells are broken, releasing certain substances that are modified and then reach the eyes through diffusion, where they cause irritation on contact. To prevent the eyes from watering, you have to prevent the gas from reaching them - for example by cutting the onion underwater. Chewing gum might help a little if you chew with your mouth open and also breathe through your mouth. You will simply disturb the gas's diffusion this way.
Yes it would. The volatile oils in the membrane between layers of onion make your eyes water, provided the onion is sufficiently warm; if the onion is cold the vapours won't be released during cutting. For this reason, onions should be kept in the refrigerator; store them in a plastic bag, twisted to keep out the air. You can put them in several layers of plastic bags, or in a tightly-sealed plastic container so that they don't cause your refrigerator to smell of onions.
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 minimumonion 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.
Yes. Also, if you chew bubblegum while cutting the onion it is supposed to prevent you from crying
Since tears come out of your eyes, you could technically get your eyes removed so you could not physically cry anymore :)
no
yes if you put the oniion in the freezer 10-15 miutes before you use it ,it prevents you from crying
By microwaving the onion you will cook it, this will prevent you from crying when you peel it but will also spoil the onion. Try this instead peel the onions in a bowl of cold water or under a running tap, or peel them outside so the wind blows away the onion fumes. Or try an old wives tale which is to hold a tea spoon between the teeth in your mouth. Good luck.
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.

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 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.
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.
You taste something else and feel the real since instead of crying you feel metallic.
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
