    You probably know this since you work in a kitchen, but a buddy recently taught me that the trick for taking the edge off raw onion—e.g. to put on a salad or burger—is to soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes. Keeps the sweetness and flavor, but seriously reduces the sulfuric burn!

      Nope. Had no idea.

      I’m a firefighter. So I only sort of work in a kitchen. Whenever I’m the one making dinner for us all.

        Lmao I’m sorry, the caffeine was hitting and my reading comprehension failed me — I saw “fire house” and interpreted that as the sub shop.

        Thank you for your very important public service and for keeping your crew fed!

            In my mind, you’re the one in charge of doing the “cooking” tasks at a fast food place, you’re probably well within your right lmao
