Chopping onions can be tricky—their round shape often leads to slips and cuts, especially when dicing into small pieces.
Luckily, there's a simple, proven technique used by home cooks everywhere: use the onion's skin as a stable handle. Watch how:

1. Cut off one end of the onion, but leave the thick outer skin intact.
2. Fold back the thicker skin sections to form a secure, natural handle.
Now dice away safely—even the tiniest pieces stay stable! This handle shines when you're down to the last bits, preventing slips.
As someone who's nicked fingers one too many times, this trick has been a game-changer in my kitchen.
