In response to "I hate how my hands smell after cutting onions. Does anyone else have that problem, or a solution to it?" by Beryllium

use gloves?

rinsing the cut (in half) onion under water is supposed to mitigate the crying effect. Don't know if it would mitigate the hand-smell effect (with which I am familiar).

Responses:

hrm. worth a shot; I might also change the type of onions I buy (from white to red) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 14, 00:23 3
- Red onions are great fresh (on salad or sandwich). I would never intentionally use them in most sauteed cooking applications, though. -- nm - psilotize Feb 14, 00:24 2
  - No? Ok. Good to know. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Feb 14, 00:31 1
    - Because their flavor is milder, they lose their effect when cooked. I have used them in a pinch, though. -- nm - psilympics Feb 14, 00:34
