Questions & AnswersOnions are such a great addition to any kind of food. I like to use them. I like the red ones especially, but the yellow ones are fantastic. There's brown, there's clear, there's Vidalia. All kinds of flavors. So decide what you want in your menu before or in your recipe rather before you purchase them. I'm going to cut for my vegetable dish that I'm making. I'm going to use a purple onion, So I'm going to lop off either side. I'm going to use a paring knife to help get rid of the skin. The skin is the part that really, it makes you want to cry. I'm all choked up about it. But I just grab a piece and I pull and it comes up fairly easily. You just pull off the rest of them with your little paring knife. Collect all the pieces and I put them in my mulching bin and here come the tears. I'm all choked up. Onions. Quick and easy way. Once down the center and cut another right in half again. So basically, in a quarter. Very carefully so you don't lose a finger. You're going to make some cuts, nice long cuts. About a similar distance apart. I like to pivot them. And with my sharp chef's knife, long smooth cuts. So they look the same. Nice and consistent. You can use these for garnish as well. You can use them to cook with. They cook down beautifully. Sometimes I'll just throw them like this in salads. And they break apart beautifully. Look at that. Nice little pieces. No tears. How did that happen? It must be you. Onions. I'm all choked up.
