Whole raw onions, as harvested, are cleaned and scalded sufficiently to slicken the membrane interface between the outermost and next inner layers of flesh without appreciably affecting the interfaces between subsequent layers of flesh. The root and stem ends are then cut off, and the outermost layers of flesh of each onion bulb and any outer skin adherant thereto is cut longitudinally along the root-stem axis of the bulb to provide a slit therealong. The so-slit onion bulb is then gripped at opposite sides of and along the slit, and the slit outermost layer of flesh and any adherant skin are pushed downwardly and stripped from the onion bulb, followed by separation of the strippings and the remaining bulb.
