I don't see the point of doing the cross cut. the onion is already in layers.

Never cut off both ends. Leave one end so the onion doesn’t fall apart while cutting it.

I feel so vindicated in always ignoring the culinary school way because it's always felt inefficient

I was taught to leave the nappy root on so it holds the onion together as you chop it. Makes it much easier so the onion doesn’t slide around.

I feel so validated by this video! I’ve never liked the traditional method and used this method all my life! Finally someone in authority prefers this too!

But what about the onion making your eyes water? How do you prevent that?

This is just a reversed rainbow cut. Rainbow doesn’t require a cross cut and wastes less

This is how I have always done mine and it seems so much more efficient than the culinary school way.

Why do you cut off the root? We were taught to leave on the root end when dicing

thank you!! the other method feels like a recipe for that onion is going flying and the knife is ending up in a hand

I never understood the cross cut. Isn't the onion already segmented? If there is a reason for this someone please tell me.

If it’s not going in a salad. The size and dice doesn’t matter. I’ve made 7 onion French onion soup. Shapes are a way of a chef slowing you down and wanting to see if you got the patience to handle the line. If you’re mad at onion shapes, you’re not gonna like the line.

makes so much more even bits, imo. alton brown promotes the radial cut too, but the radial cut goes first, then across. same same
