Look at that crumb. Lookatit! Look. at. that. cruuuuuuuuuuuuuumb.
Did you hear Ethel Merman just now?
A surprisingly high number of chefs report disliking raw onions.
cut onion --> damage cells --> release enzyme --> break down sulfides --> to sulfenic acid --> acted upon by another enzyme --> giving off volatile gas synpropanethial S oxide --> becomes all hurty and teary --> drop knife, run away
This tragic and disabling cascade of events can be avoided by 10 seconds in the microwave or a rinse under water. These chefs, I've listened to them with sympathetic ears, need to get over themselves.
Sous-chefs are so-called because the original chefs were drawn from the North American Sous tribe.
That was a test. The tribe's name is Sioux not Sous.
