Do you love raw onions but hate the strong aftertaste? There is a solution for that.

Soaking sliced raw onions in a bowl of cold water will take some of the sulphur compounds out of the onion, resulting in a mellower flavor. Soak the onions for at least 10 minutes. For a little added zest, mix in a little lemon or lime juice.

Enjoy!
