Up till now, if I wanted to add scallions to my favorite dishes, I’d drag out a cutting board and a knife, but I just thought of an easier way: From now on, when I want scallions, I plan on cutting them with my kitchen scissors. They’re small enough that I imagine just about any kind of clean scissors will cut them up, but if you have kitchen scissors, go ahead and use them.
I’m surprised that I didn’t come up with this earlier. Now that I think of it, scissors could be used for all sorts of food, like green beans, pea pods, etc. It would probably be a lot easier to chop olives in two with them, instead of having them roll around on a cutting board.
Can you think of other foods that would be easier to chop with scissors?
Is this a great idea, or am I the last person on the planet to think of this?
