You must've seen Nigella cut up onions and stuff with a mezzaluna, peeking up at you seductively as she tells you how she loves this thing. She convinced me that I not only can make the cutting of onions and garlic a sensuous task, but also enjoy it.
My friend Elaine got me this super cutting tool from her latest trip to Sydney and so far I haven't gotten my hands on it because mom wanted to try it, then Leila too and soon all my garlic was done and anything that needed to be minced got minced. Quite the dangerous tool. The response so far is very good. Leila said it cuts ginger very well, very finely and also brings out the juice. Another good thing about it is, it slices rather than cut so that your onions or even choc bits don't jump all over as would happen if you chop. So, do consider getting one. I hear they even come with double blades.
