Different Ways to Cut Onions

  1. Chopping This involves cutting onions into smaller pieces than the original size of an onion. However, remember that these pieces must be slightly larger than the diced pieces. Chopped onions may normally vary from ¼-inch chunks (a fine chop) to 1-inch large chunks (a rough chop). These are the most commonly used variant that can be used in all types of preparations. Chopped onions have medium-sized square bits. This cut is most widely used in Indian recipes, stir-fried vegetables, and is cooked in less time. 2. Dicing These are smaller, uniformly sized cubes that cook quickly and evenly. The normal size of a diced onion is ¼-inch, which is a great addition to sauces, toppings, and condiments such as tomato relish. A medium dice involves cutting onions into ½-inch pieces, which are used in chunky salsas and toppings. A large dice yields ¾-inch cubes used for salads,

stews, and soups. Diced onions look similar to chopped onions provided they are smaller than chopped onions. 3. Grating Grating of onion refers to shaving it down into very small slices even finer than a finely minced onion. This process allows you to create small onion pieces that caramelize quickly and evenly, that do not need to be precooked before incorporating into a sautéed mixture. 4. Mincing Mincing of onions involves cutting them as finely as possible into nearly ⅛-inch pieces. It is utilized in recipes that require plenty of onion flavor without the toothsome texture of larger pieces. Onions are usually minced using a food processor but can also be done using a sharp knife. Minced onions are used in soups, marinades, manchurian balls, raita, and even some curries. 5. Onion Rings Ring-cutting of onion is like slicing, which further involves separating the layers. These are best for homemade fried onion rings. They’re also a great addition to roasts or French onion soup. To make onion rings, start cutting the peeled onions vertically, after trimming its edges. Once cut into circular slices, use your hands to detach the rings from one another. 6. Slicing Slicing an onion involves cutting the onion along a latitudinal plane to obtain half rings/ half moon of onions. You can eat sliced onions raw in salads, garnish burgers with them, or use them to make caramelized onions. 7. Wedging Onion wedges involve cutting an onion into four equally sized sections, first along the vertical plane and then horizontally. These are normally grounds for gravies and sauces.
