If you were Emeril, you would have said "like such."

That guy drove me crazy (Emeril, that is) the way he butchered the english language! lol!

@bearnurse1

You don't! Nothing really helps.

Just try to keep your face as far as possible from the onion while preparing it without losing sight of what you're doing! !

@dvsn23 Julienne is a match stick sizing cut, nothing to do with the grain

[TheDive99]

@shadow0mega exactly!

[TheDive99]

that is not the best way to peel it.

chop the top off , chop it in half, then peel each half. so much easyer than this. dont use a knife to peel the skin off. that idea is absurd.
