While onions are a delicious addition to most dishes, cutting onions can be a struggle even for the more seasoned cooks among us. Trying to cut onions without literally crying every time might seem like a fate that cannot be avoided, but according to one man, it doesn’t have to be so.

A TikToker has just shown the Internet that we might have been cutting onions wrong our whole life. Here is the hack he uses in order to have beautifully sliced onions without any of the tears.

The actual way to cut onion

TikToker @casa_tips shared videos of tips and hacks for people to use for doing things around the house. He shared a video with his onion cutting hack which has gone completely viral with more than 80 million views. The video clip has been liked by more than 3.5 million people already.

White or red onion? which one do you prefer to eat ? Tell us in the comments. A fork + a strong peeler made in Germany = epic win !
