🧅 How to Cut an Onion Like a Pro 🧅

A few simple knife skills can make cooking easier, faster and safer. Here’s our go-to way to dice an onion:

🔪 Peel off the outer skin.

🔪 Cut the onion in half, keeping the root intact.

🔪 Use a bear claw grip to keep your fingertips safely tucked away.

🔪 Make slices from top to bottom, stopping before the root.

🔪 Turn the onion and make 2–3 horizontal cuts, stopping before the root.

🔪 Slice across to create even diced pieces.

Keeping the root intact helps hold everything together while you cut, making it easier to get neat, even pieces.
Save this for your next recipe! 💚

🫟🤯 Let’s make some DIY SLIME… or is it?!

Oobleck is super fun, easy to make, and a little bit weird! 👀 It’s a non-Newtonian fluid, which means it can act like a liquid or a solid depending on how you move it.

🧪 You’ll need:
• 1 cup cornstarch
• ½ cup water
• A few drops of food colouring

Mix it together, give it a squeeze, and see what happens! When you move it slowly, it flows like a liquid. But squeeze or push it quickly, and it suddenly acts more like a solid!

Try it at home and see if you can figure out why! 🔬✨

Stay curious, scientists! 🧑‍🔬
