From my freinds over at foodbuzz.com, this is a very cool video on how to dice an onion. The video was submitted by Cook Local.
I was taught this technique by Chef Peter when we co-taught several cooking classes. He made a point of showing me how easy it was to dice an onion.
As with all things you learn, unless you use it, you loose it.
I lost this one, but now I have a video record of the technique, so I will get some reminders.
You should try this method. It will save you time and energy.

I get so nervous seeing fingers so close to the blade.
ReplyDeleteVery true Nate and Annie.
ReplyDeleteChef Peter always said to use a "tiger-claw". That is is you fold in your fingers, and use the flat of of the second bone in your fingers as a guide.
I have cut myself a number of times because I didn't do that.
