    We remove the juices in pre-production facility.
    These juices are vital and adds to the basic properties of an onion.
    Get your own onion, chop it to the best of your ability, use it.

    I used to run a production kitchen making fresh salsa. I can honestly say that one of the best days I ever had at that job was when our automatic dicer went into operation. Tipping 200 kilos of peeled onions into the hopper and watching it go made me laugh like a kid! No more burning eyes from hours of chopping by hand.

      @CologneCarter 10 лет назад +5

      Maybe you won't forever. I haven't cried for years no matter how many onions I sliced and diced and I don't know why and when it stopped. It simply did.
      Anyway, there is no better way then using fresh onions. I seriously didn't like the diced onions being dragged through water. The juices are washed out, reducing the flavor.

    • @hamneggwich
      @hamneggwich 10 лет назад +1

      CologneCarter It mostly depends on how sharp the knife is and then how you cut them. I never cry either. I gotta system! Top them, half them, take off skin(way easier with halves) and cut down towards the root end without cutting through the root then slice, discard root. Takes all of a minute for one onion, maybe even less. It's practically muscle memory when you do a lot of cooking. I've never used pre-cut onions so I have no idea if the flavour is any different.

    • @CologneCarter
      @CologneCarter 10 лет назад

      hamneggwich I use the same method for dicing onions, although for no reason at all I peel the whole onion. Works for me so far.
      As for pre-diced onions soaked in water as seen... It washes away some of the juices, reducing tangyness when raw, but it also takes away some of the taste when swetting or pan frying.
      It's easy to try out for yourself. Dice an onion, wash it in cold water and then go from there. Try a piece raw against an unwashed piece. Same with cooking.
      There are Japanese recipes calling for onions and spring onions to be soaked in water to remove/reduce tanbyness in certain recipes where onions are servced raw.
      So there might be a point to it for a certain recipe, but in general I like my onions with all the juices and tangyness.

      +Rusty Shackleford That is absolutely true, but as lots of localities implement new regulations which lift the minimum wage for restaurant workers, you can expect to see many more mechanically chopped onions in restaurants -- and the former restaurant food prep people out of jobs. Lots of restaurant jobs will now be moving to mechanization.

      Basically anything that requires feeding thousands of people at once will be more efficient if they buy pre-cut produce. Prisons, hospitals, airline food, etc.

    • @rustyshackleford9261
      @rustyshackleford9261 8 лет назад +3

      +Sam M. Actually pre chopped onions are more popular in the home where small families may not have the knife skills or the need for an entire onion. Any business that is going to still be in business in 5 years buys their own onions and cuts them themselves ahead of time. It's more of a waste of money to buy bagged and precut than the time it takes to chop onions is worth, and anyone who has ever chopped onions for any food business will tell you the same.

    • @bobbytables464
      @bobbytables464 8 лет назад +1

      Anything can happen. Machine parts could have loosen and went with the onions. People particularly in the US, are too fast in filing a lawsuit even trivial things or even if it were their own fault.
      So this is not as stupid as you make it sound to be.

      KidOnTheNet Pre-cut onions are must for big restaurants that prepares huge amounts of food for people every day. It's cheaper to buy pre-cut onions, than to buy whole onions, and then to pay to one person a salary to cut them.

Before all of you make yourself look rude online, Realize things in your country aren't always the same in other place.

    I partly do it to make the onions last when I have a lot, partly for convenience and mostly because I have chronic pain. I don't normally feel up to chopping so when I do I chop a bunch.

    Very interesting! I use a lot of onions in my cooking because they have elements in then that are very good for you and can enhance the taste of many rather bland foods without adding salt or sugar. They contain antioxidants and other healthy reasons to eat them, one of them is quercetin, which has many health benefits and MAY help prevent some diseases including cancer. They also can help build and maintain cell structure and make healthy new cells, something we all need, especially as we age. They can help thinning the blood in order to prevent high blood pressure and prevent heart attacks, and onions may even help to regulate cholesterol! So they are good guys in our healthy foods!
