No problem at all; I have a great trick for taking the edge off the onion in Greek salad. 1. Boil 1-2 cups of water and place the prepped onion in a colander. 2. Pour the hot water over the onion and drain well. 3. Transfer the onion to the bowl with your prepared dressing. Cover and refrigerate for 10-20 minutes, then toss with the remaining salad ingredients.
