Usually, when we are cooking and cutting onions, we are left with an unbearable smell. To avoid this, what you should do is, when washing the knife with which you cut the onion, carefully run it over the palm of your hand and the back of your hands (each part with each side of the washed knife). This way, you will have no smell left at all; in fact, it will seem as if you haven't even touched the onion.
