The Great Onion Slicing Debate And My Favorite Way To Do It 

IM BACK!! Now you can go school some fools on how to cut an onion properly my friends!! Lets make some effort to waste less food as well!! 🙏❤️🙏

So many RU-vid cooks will say that their methods are the "best". I like that Sonny doesn't say that his way is the be all and end all. He gives you three ways to do it and tells you which one he prefers. Great way to teach rather than talk at you. Subscribed.

YESSSSS!!! I needed this training. :) Glad to see you BACK Sonny!

“Hey honey! What’re we having for dinner?” Sonny: “onions honey. A lot of onions!”

“A lot less skill” Chops the onion like a ninja

In the late 1980s when I was in high school I volunteered with my parents at the Dallas PBS station and during one of their annual pledge drives they managed to get Jacques Pepin. He did several lessons from his book La Technique and one was how to chop/mince alliums. He diced the onion exactly like you do!!

“Hit your fridge” advice at the end is a true life hack

It's refreshing seeing someone willing to put in a few seconds of extra work to avoid wasting food. I took the vegetable scraps from someone's salad once and chopped up all the perfectly good bits she had declared to be trash. I got almost two cups of perfectly good food out of them.

Sonny, my wife and I have been watching your fantastic videos for quite some time. Learning a lot and enjoying them all. “You know, you know. “. Love the refrigerator finale every time. Thanks for sharing your best. Subscribed and waiting for the next one.

I've been literally trying all of Sonny's stuff and none of them have let me down yet!

The fridge shtick is by far one of the best ones out there. Giggle to myself every time.

You seriously have one of my favorite channels.

Really appreciate you highlighting food waste and spreading a message of humility/gratitude 💕 And the tips are awesome, too! 🙏🏽

I love how appreciative you are with food. All people should do the same

Peppers please 🙂 I've seen a few ways to cut and clean them. I want to see how you do it 👀

Totally keep these up! Super helpful and just fun to watch!

Yes !! Love these longer informational vids.

I like leaving the root attached when cutting the onion. I pretty much chop it the way you do. Thank you for the demo. And you know I love you.

You are my all time favorite! Always make me smile. Thanks for making these videos!

By far the most detailed onion-cutting video I've seen

I recently watched a video of how Gordon Ramsey dices onions - I think you both share a preferred method (which has been super helpful over the last fews meals I’ve made). Thanks for the videos - they’re always good for a smile!

I’m so glad you’re back!!! I missed your videos!

I don't like dicing onions like a professional chef, I have always done a julliene slice to dice! Keep rocking dude!

Love it! Used to be a both side cutter but have evolved thanks to you Sonny!! 🙌🏼

Love love this lesson and entertainment!!!!! Can’t wait to watch w/grandsons who love you too!!! 😍😍

His knife work is amazing and learning some new techniques to cut certain foods is a ++ in my books

The best instructor out there. Great videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Please do more like this!!!

I’m going to go try this right now!! Glad to see you again!!

Thanks for your tips👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you for coming back! Everyone needs a break from time to time. Hope all is well. From Texas. 🍻

That dude can cook, thank you and we love you brother!

This is life changing, thank you!

I'm in high school and iam learning how to cut in culinary class .but this help alote hopefully I can impressed some of my classmates.

Your favourite way is exactly the way I like to dice my onions, right down to the technique for finishing off the root end. It's just something I learned from trial and error. You've earned yourself a sub, sir.

Everything you do is the 'right way' and please keep the tutorials coming💖

YES keep up the tutorials!!!

Thanks for the tip bro very helpful as always a genius!

Dude… you’re in the Top 10 best things that ever hit RU-vid! Serious AF!

This 8th year teacher moving through the pandemic, who moonlights every so often BOH, needed this today. No industry hours this weekend, but bought myself a big ol' bag of onions and another of potatoes just to hone the knife skills.

Clears it up for me. Thanks

Obviously I've been cutting onions wrong! Thank you Chef! Peace and respect to you!

I've watched a lot of your videos. This is the one that made me subscribe. Love the basics done right!

As a chef, its nice to see these kind of videos and you nailed your explanation. Well done sonny!

Love going back to basics!

Bro your vids and knowledge is good! And funny af!! Lol love it thanks for awesome tips and dishes!!!

I love seeing some longer videos like this. Hell yes.

Dude your awesome. Came across your videos and love them and have tried a few. Keep up the great work and thanks for making me laugh.

This has been the #1 thing I’ve been struggling with lately, how to get a consistent dice. Great vid!

can you imagine a fighting channel that whenever they did something awesome, they diced an onion?

My fav way also! Great vid!

Great cooking videos love them... easy and tasty

You know we love you too :)

This was awesome teaching love your enthusiasm 👌👌👌👌

Thank you for this, I have been doing it the first way. But now I am going to switch technic to your style.

Love your humor....now let's go!!

Thank you for this!

Sonny, I need to see you every day. No funny business. It's part of my day.

Yes .. enjoy your training videos .. keep them coming..

I have watched you and really enjoy your lessons. I would definitely watch for more tips. I knew a tip about not cutting the root end, and now can try slicing it differently to get less waste.

I love these vegetable prep vidoes. Please do more.

Fantastic video!!! Loved the no waste.

I've been doing it the wrong way. Your way is much better. Do anything, I'll learn from it. Thank you.

YES!!!! This video was super helpful! I would love more helpful video preps, that would be fantastic, let’s go!

You are so correct ,growing up on a farm nothing went to waste. You are the best and does not matter what you cook as long as you keep it simple. You will do well

I have been doing this the same way as you do for years now. Great job chef

As a prep cook by day, i loved watching this. To me prepping veggies or anything is relaxing. Pop in my ear buds, throw on some slow smokey jazz tunes, grab my blade and go at it.

We like anything you put out so keep them coming.

Even though we went two weeks without content, we know you’re back now!

OMG...my frig looks just like yours!!! Thank you to a 3 year old grandson! 😂🤣😂

Love your vids mate!!!!

I legitimately want video with Sonny hitting fridge only.

Yes yes yes more more vegetable dice videos please. I love your channel.

Love it good video I watched like a bunch today! Would like a longer video with like a full course of perhaps your favorite dishes from different cuisines

Dude you're awesome I love watching your videos

Yo dude your the man thanks for the vids!

Glad to know I dice onions one of the better ways that you showed. I dice mine like the Marco White way and have been doing it like that for 40 years + of cooking. If I want just slices I have them that way too. And I never cut off the root end to begin with as that was how my mother cut onions. Large family and money tight so all food had to be used and nothing going to waste. Nice rule to live by. Your videos are awesome and everything I’ve tried has been the best. My favorite so far was the chicken cutlets with panko. OMG to die for and never knew they could be so good, but also my first time frying chicken. Always cooked it in the oven or just plain in a skillet, but never again!

Happy to see you again! Would love to see how to cook lamb the best way without a thermometer🔥

I have learned so much from watching Sonny’s videos! Teach me more!!!

Love vids m8! You know we love you!

Love your energy, Dude! 😄❤️

This is a very great way to help out with cutting an onion, it can help me in the futureu for cooking, thanks for the help

Super helpful!

Dude, I just found your channel today, awesome content. The Last way you chopped the onion is my favorite as well. I learned that method 25 years ago when I went to cook school while in the military. Have a great day. 👍

I've been watching you and Sergeant Gilbert for a while now and didn't realize that I was not subscribed. I just pushed that button. Great work, stay humble.

The fridge beating never fails to make me laugh 😂

Love your vids brother, especially theinger one's! Keep up the great work 👍

I’m so happy I learned something new. I hate dicing unions when using the knife to cut through and down.

love these prep videos...

Love this guy!!

Love your message about food waste! ♥

Love your videos!! This was great! Please mention to compost your food waste!

I’m all about this, I’ve always wondered what the best way to do this is. Feels like the way I do it I never get the cut I really want. Will try this next time!

Man that brings me back to my days as a prep cook in Vegas 🤣 Keep it up man, love the videos

I've actually learned from another chef about the last way and it is SO much easier! Also, this man's charisma levels are through the roof!
