This is a great technique to use to get nice, even squares of chopped onion. See the descriptions below each picture for instructions.

Slice the top end off of your onion. Peel off the papery outsides. Leave the bottom intact. Slice the onion in half, slicing through the bottom. Start with your first half.

Repeat with other half.
