Dice an Onion, the Right Way

Practice the proper onion-dicing technique until it feels natural. Time yourself and reflect on the result.

1

Get an onion and your sharpest knife

2

Review the technique: halve through root, flat side down, horizontal cuts, vertical cuts, slice across

3

Practice the claw grip throughout

4

Dice the entire onion using the correct method

5

Cook something with the diced onion so it doesn't go to waste

💡

How did the technique feel compared to how you used to do it? Were the pieces consistent?
