Test Kitchen Tips

To rapidly chop an onion, peel the onion and work in two vertically. Leave root finish intact. Place onion half flat side lower on cutting board. Make several slices parallel to board in to the onion, departing root uncut. Then slice perpendicularly to reduce the onion.

Cheddar will get its name from the village in England we know of for that scrumptious cheese.
