I agree with the peeling method of slicing the top and bottom portion of the onion, and then using your fingers to peel away the layers. Two other methods I've heard about to avoid tearing is to slice your onions while they're really cold OR have some sort of candle nearby - doesn't even need to be scented. The little bit of smoke released with the candle supposedly neutralizes the "gases" eminating from the onion.

Cut the root end off first.. this is supposed to minimize the tearing agent in the onion, then the stem end. A good firm wack to the side of the onion, with the blade of your knife, hard enough to break through the first "all white" layer of the onion. Peel the skin and first layer off together in large chunks. Run under cold water for a second or two. Viola, a tearless, ready to chop onion.

Many years as a prep-cook. Chew a gum. U will not cry. U can cooly peel the Onion. It works. Believe me


peel under water

If you are asking this due to the tear factor :
Keep a small piece of bread between your lips while peeling.
This will keep you from crying. really very hard to answer it:)))
