Start by slicing the top end of the onion, about 1/2″ into the bulb of the onion. Keep the root end intact.
Place the onion on a cutting board, root end up, and slice vertically through the onion, cutting in half.
Take 1 half and peel back the outer skin layers all the way to the root.
Place flat-side down and make vertical cuts, about 1/4″ apart, but not all the way through the onion. Stop about 1/2″ short of the back (root) end.
Now turn onion and slice crossways to previous cuts and watch diced pieces fall away.
