Cutting Onions



We all cut onions, and we all cry.
It is part of the kitchen ritual. I've heard of many ideas to stop the shed of tears, but none have ever worked.

Until today.

It was an accident, really. We had placed our bag of onions in the garage to keep cool, and didn't realize that they had frozen. When I began chopping them, I braced myself for the sting. 

Nothing! Frozen onions are totally choppable, and they don't sting your eyes. I don't know the science, nor do I care to. What I do know is that I will never chop an onion and cry again!
