The video shows a person's hands as they chop an onion on a wooden cutting board. The onion is being cut into thin slices. There are also some garlic cloves and a bunch of fresh herbs on the cutting board. The person's hands are steady as they slice through the onion with a sharp knife. The cutting board has some scratches and marks from previous use. The lighting in the video is bright, and the colors are vibrant, with the green of the herbs contrasting against the white of the onion and the brown of the wooden board.
