Chopping Onions
This one is especially difficult for women who have make-up on. Some onions tend to be stronger than others. Don’t buy into myths such as running cold water might help or hold a wooden spoon in your mouth. Check out this video how to cut onions without tears.
A Phone Call
Just as you are washing veg and grains, someone calls your phone. By the time you wash hands, answer it, chat, it might be difficult to get back to cooking.
Frying
Oil splashes are very common during frying or shallow frying. Unless you wear an all protected gear, you are bound to get oil marks on your clothes and maybe even on your skin. The skin burns are likely to need attention and cream or other solution put on. This all makes it difficult to get back to cooking or finish it.
