As a super taster, eating red onion, especially raw, is an experience not too dissimilar from being forced mouth first into the battery acid and foot odor factory.
I know it's not an option for all but if you cook regularly it's time to invest in good knives. Don't have to be professional chef level expensive but 2-3 good knives can be bought for 100-150 and if treated properly will last you years if not decades.
The trick to prevent this is to have a very sharp knife. Most of the crying comes from too blunt knifes rather squashing than cutting the onion, releasing far more gases with cause the tears.
Since i've done that i hardly have tears when chopping onions.
Two things: You need a really fresh, crisp onion to get it as fine as this, otherwise it'll stick and snag as you slice. Also - it makes little difference to most recipes to cut an onion so finely.

Why did I just spend 58 seconds of my life watching someone dice an onion?

*watches as users scramble to save this so they can use it when an emotional post makes people ask "who's cutting onions in here?"*

i need to sharpen my knife

More like, we need a $1000 knife and three weeks in chef school
ArchonIlladrya
It's amazing how much just sharpening your knives can do. After all, a sharp knife is safer than a dull knife.

Fine, but not technically correct.
MissChickle
How is that not correct? If you mean they didn't do the cuts horizontally, not every chef agrees that's necessary.

The trick to not crying when you cut up onions is to not form an emotional bond with the onions ahead of time, same thing works for humans too.

Mine always sticks to the knife no matter how much I sharpen and hone it

Whenever I tried this, the slices get stuck to the knife and they get out of the pile.

Just use a mandolin slicer if you want nice thin and even onion slices.

Needs to start w/ horizontal cuts there are definitely larger prices on on the sides, & the finger nails bothered me
Lynchmyliege
Agreed. If you cut towards the center of the onion, you can get a dice that is even on length, width, and depth.

I might need a video to understand this

SinStar87
people also wash their meat, and often use bleach, people are weird.
VitaminMarc
I've done this technique, it's wonderful. But I simply do not have this level of mastery
SinStar87
alot of it is the knife, if that thing's not razor sharp it'll catch and mess things up.

Thin slices are best for pickling, which I do a fair bit. But it's much easier to just use a mandolin.
