been workign at a factory where we produced cut and then frozen onions, you get use it after one hour some onions are worse then others so there are bad and worse days i am, or my eys are more sensitive then other peoples and sometimes i had to exit outside couple of times inside that first hour rest of the time you have burning sensation inside the nose

Onions are part of the flavour base in any good meal, from soup stock, to stews, to curries. You lose a whole dimension of taste if you use low quality products.
yeah I worked for 1 month in a similar factory and it was smelly also my eyes would cry every time going to work and coming from break hahaha even if you take a shower you still smell like onions lol
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.
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.
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.
I've been to many restaurants where the kitchen was visible, and I have worked in a few kitchens myself, and I've never used nor seen anyone using pre-chopped onions. There's always a whole box of fresh onions delivered from the market every day, and one chef will chop them all the time, slicing and dicing depending on recipes.
There is a higher concentration of people in restaurants in NYC, And my mother is a hard working lady, She doesn't always have time to chop the onions for dinner, If stuffing or "Gravy" is being made she sometimes buys the onions and celery in the store where the store cuts them fresh daily. Before all of you make yourself look rude online, Realize things in your country aren't always the same in other place. And FYI, USA is known for their chefs and people who can "Still know how to use knives."
The "juice" released from a cut onion is what it makes it freaking delicious and these guys just frigging wash it away. What kind of fucking restaurant would buy this shit?
Needles have been found in airplane food by a passenger. Had they done the same precautionary measure, it would have been avoided. 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. The "onions bring guns" statement just make you sound arrogantly ignorant.
If that is the case, metal detectors would make sense as the last step. The slicing and dicing tools too have moving parts and are equally prone to such accidents.
I've been known to pre chop my own onions. then I freeze them for later use. Usually for my quick quesadilla making but also cooking. 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.
+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.
+Rusty Shackleford No, ones that serve a LOT of people in a very short time. Like concession stands at sporting events, etc. So yes, they're "shitty" in the sense that it's not high cuisine, but no kitchen could serve 10k people in the space of 15 minutes. 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.
+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.
Rusty Shackleford That's completely absurd. These were like 30 lb bags. Please read what I wrote, this is for SPORTING EVENTS and other MASS CATERING situations. It's idiotic to hire people to cut thousands of onions by hand, it will always be cheaper to buy them pre-cut in a factory by a robot.
J1NX1337 reusable ones are much better than recyclable ones if you make the most of them, though glass jars with rubber seals are a viable alternative. grass clippings,defoliated crop waste and whatnot could be made into paper. now that's impractical but if pulp was made and processed on a smaller local scale and sold to a larger processing plant for greater efficacy. or just burn it either way save trees create a job
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.
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!
you do know these chopped onions usually go to fast food chains like mcdonalds or burger king or taco bell and shit. sure your local restaurant may not need this, but when you have a fastfood chain serving 2000 burgers a day, I think you can let that sink in.
@@jonathoncliffbailey Food manufacturers are required to have a metal detection tunnel where all food ingredients convey through to check for metal pieces that might have fallen into onions. They also use Xray equipment that can detect bone fragments when used in meat processing facilities.

No my friend onions are best for eyes and secondly only problem it result in is dehydration.

some onions are worse then others so there are bad and worse days
