Chives are an excellent addition to many savory and sweet dishes. However, the one big issue many cooks have with chives is that they can be a pain to chop, so if you love chives but hate cutting them, we've got you covered.

Chef Genevieve LaMonaca shared a video on Instagram of a trick for cutting chives that she picked up while working in a Michelin-starred restaurant. To start, wash and dry the chives, then take a paper towel and wet it lightly before wringing it out and spreading it on a flat surface.

Next, fold the paper towel in half, then fold it again and wrap it around the chives to form a bundle with the chives sticking out about two inches. The damp paper towel will hold the chives together tightly, making them a breeze to slice.
