    Steps

    1. Cut 1 onion in half horizontally. This technique lowers the height compared to cutting vertically, making it easier to chop later.
    2. Using the heel of your knife, remove the core from the onion.
    3. Place two bamboo skewers, one at the front and one at the back of the onion.
    4. Slowly cut from the edge of the onion, ensuring you don't cut through the skewers. If the skewers shift, hold them in place with your fingertips or adjust their position as you cut.
    5. Rotate the onion 90 degrees and cut from the edge again, chopping through the entire onion. The last 1-2 cm at the edge can be difficult to cut; try laying the onion down to finish.
    6. Lay the chopped onion flat on the cutting board.
    7. To break down larger pieces into uniformly small ones, use a drop-cutting motion with your knife from the edge.
    8. Flatten again and repeat the drop-cutting motion with the knife at a different angle.
