Well, the day that started off so poorly has continued - we were late for a business appointment because we couldn't find a parking space.... on the way home, the local radio announcer was discussing the development in England of an onion, which is being bred in such a way that it won't cause the eyes to water when chopping.
A lot of suggestions for minimising the watering eyes were broadcast for those of us who don't have "waterless" onions. That made me crave onions with my steak for dinner...so I came home, and tried a suggestion I hadn't heard before. Put the onion in the freezer for a couple of minutes before peeling. This lowers the levels of whatever it is that causes the eyes to water, and thus peeling is painless. It works!! However, whilst I was cutting the onions, I also cut my finger badly .... so there I was, still crying! I'm going to bed!! It seems like the safest thing to do at this stage!!
