[@adriancampos1976]

Thank you this helped a lot!! Every time I chop an onion I start thinking about it’s family and all the onions left at the grocery store and just get so emotional

[@amo_res9266]

My problem is that my eyes get so irritated when i tear up. So when i cut onions, my eyes tear up so much and it hurts like hell😂

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Right?! I worked in a restaurant where I literally wore goggles when I had to slice and prep all the onions for the day 🫣

[@kdreddy-se7ux]

😊😊. 😢😮😮

[@kab43]

same. and when i cry it makes me cry cause it hurts a lot and the cycle repeats

[@user-ls7br4um7y]

You might have dry eyes. If you do over the counter drops work wonders

[@angieogburnremaxresults2452]

Wow! Out of all the videos I've tried that claimed to not make my eyes water, yours is the only one that did not hurt my eyes at all!! Thank you!!

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Success! I’m so glad I could help. Thanks for watching 👩🏼‍🍳

[@karnuna7]

Not a single tear shed! Thanks for this trick!

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Yaaasss! I’m so glad it worked!

[@lolabunny7788]

For those saying it does not work try this⬇️ Cut by a sink to rinse the knife often. Open the window! I cut to freeze so I bagged it immediately after cutting, and cut safely but pick up the speed! NO tears for me :) Thank you for showing me this method!

[@Obama8mycatHQ.]

Just tried it 10/10 thank you 🙌🏻

[@leeanntran102]

Thank you so much. This helps me so much. I'm terrible at chopping onions lol

[@peninafriedman9996]

I am so excited to try this method out! Thank you so much for sharing

[@augustinedaudu9203]

Oh my God thank you so much!! Everytime I try to make guacamole I usually have tears of pain in my eyes, but now they're tears of joy❤

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

I LOVE guacamole! What’s your go to recipe?

[@damienthecatdog3598]

I tried this and it works. It’s also a lot faster if you do it this way. I feel kinda dumb for doing it wrong all this time.

[@user-cv2vo5wn9m]

same but props to us for looking up a remedy :)

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Trust me I even worked in a kitchen and didn’t know about this. We just used goggles like fools hahaha.

[@okinawacafe]

Thank you for this ! I’m chef but didn’t know that...

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Glad it was helpful!

[@gerardfarresfranch7242]

I'm here now, after crying like an idiot, hopefully I remember this for next time...

[@jordynarriola2741]

I will start now! Haha I hate crying with onions!

[@Peter64AD]

My eyes are already crying just watching this 😢

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

😭😭😭

[@mike_yt35]

hi, camy. firstly, to say, I have liked this video + subscribed to your channel. thanks for this helpful tutorial because I am now thanks to this video, able to chop/dice an onion without tearing, thanks to you! also, you are so beautiful! 😊✌🏻♥️

[@AP-eh6gr]

thank you

[@istanbul_travels.vs.recipe5176]

Thank you for tricks❤️🤗

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Any time! Glad it was helpful!

[@mamabirdie734]

This method worked for me. However, it’s equally important to sharpen your knives. Using a sharp knife, which damages fewer cells and creates less "tear gas" than a dull knife, may also help. I have a 2 stage knife sharpener that I run my knives through “course” and “fine” then test it to slice a piece of paper effortlessly then I know it’s sharp enough. I used to wear an entire face shield cutting onions but no more since this video!

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

I have one of those too and totally agree - having a sharp knife is the ultimate cooking hack and a total game changer. I worked in a restaurant where we’d use a meat slicer and legit wear goggles prepping all the onions for the day. It was brutal!!

[@f.T8428]

Amazing. Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@user-ls7br4um7y]

What brand knife is that

[@adamhassouna23]

I tried it, but that wasn't stopping me from crying. completely but it reduce it❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jaxxondiaz1690]

thank you

[@lonnellbivins4787]

Wow. I just stumbled across your channel and thank you. I can never dice onions neatly and have minimal tearing. Also I love that background song! What's the name of it if you don't mind.

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

I’m so glad I can help! I love this some too. We use epidemic sound where you pay a subscription to use their songs royalty free! Not sure which one that was but I know that’s where we got it ☺️ they also have a Spotify channel

[@lonnellbivins4787]

@@ThePlantBasedKitchen Ok. Thank you. Love the channel.

[@heronshorts]

oh boy i followed this and i cried, will stick to cutting onions with the window open.

[@95rav]

Or just use a food processor. Better still, just use frozen diced onion. Take what you need. No waste.

[@idoorion9279]

My mom taught me this technique

[@sol_music]

Thank you so much. This worked perfectly.

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

You are so welcome!

[@quinkydinkend]

The trick is to not form an emotional bond

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

This is officially my favorite comment

Great video!

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Thank you for watching 😁👩🏼‍🍳

Shawty stole Gordon Ramsay’s video. Word for word. Bar for bar

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Gordon Ramsey is one of my faves! Happy to hear you like him too ❤️

[@nayemalaboni8318]

I cut exactly how you cut yet tear up

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

I get an especially nasty onion now and then that will still get me 😭 sorry it didn’t work out for you but I appreciate you watching and commenting.

[@HaiTharImDavid]

So we're not suppose to cut against the root lines but we still end up cutting it like that when we dice it so won't it still cause tears?

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

I’ve found the least amount of time I have the root cut is better for avoiding tears.

[@SaintlessRex]

I followed the steps and I am still crying so... I don't know how I screwed it up

[@cptgibbs4256]

Im a browns fan so I have to also turn off the TV while I cut onions for my failure stew

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

That’s ok, I grew up a Chargers fan…we can cut onions and cry together

[@Wave_prod]

I cry just by thinking of onions

[@Tomikokokoko]

Just wondering, does this method completely get rid of the irritation? Via nothing happening?

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Yes, it works really great for me. I use this method every time I cut onions and every so often I’ll get a really bad one that’ll bother my eyes a little but this seems to drastically reduce the potency

[@Tomikokokoko]

@@ThePlantBasedKitchen Oh okay, thanks!

[@chochooshoe]

so it really is just that little bit at the end that causes tears? why not just cut it off to begin with then?

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

I find the less time the root is cut the better for avoiding tears.

[@darkangel8984]

When I did it I cant see

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Oh no!

[@rishidevramdoo2986]

The best Solution wear a Google i have cuts 20 kg of ,No tears ❤

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

🤿

[@ShinyMusic222]

Soo.. it took away 90% of the 😭. I literally had planned to buy swimgoggles...While I dont mind looking like a dork.. it sure is easier without.. Don't need "PAIN!!" as yet another hindrance for cooking. #beach2024 Still some irritation. I think I need a sharper 🔪 .. You haven't won yet, onions!!

[@monica-leebeaurain4746]

This did not work for me😂😂😂😂

[@gregrebuck3585]

Must have done something wrong. It helped a little but I still got irritated.

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

Keep trying - sometimes I get a nasty one that will bother my eyes a little but this seems to still help reduce the potency

[@ryanolson7]

I still cried

[@boobiedefloop6097]

Anyone who said this helped them is lying. Makes no difference.

[@95rav]

Pretty much. Don't cut across the onion. Cut this way. Then cut across the onion but don't cut across the onion.

[@avahash531.]

I tried this, and it did not help at all. I’ve been crying for like five minutes.

[@Linknasty]

Didn’t work unsubscribing baby!!!

[@EllenKey-fn5nn]

If you are going to be a chef, you MUST get that long hair pulled up , away from the food!

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

As a chef, I ALWAYS have my hair up but it’s so nice to be able to let my hair down in my own kitchen at home. Thanks for your concern, this is just for filming ❤️❤️

[@kadryazis3484]

how to basic do better

[@drewyarborough4975]

You lied to me

[@ThePlantBasedKitchen]

So no luck, huh?

[@jaxxondiaz1690]
