How to remove fish odor in the house
Whether you're frying fish or burning bacon, the smell of your cooking may linger longer than you'd like. Here's an easy way to clear the air without compromising your food.
Removing odors from the air
Combine 2 cups (16 fl oz/500 ml) water, 1 cup (8 fl oz/250 ml) vinegar and 1 tsp. whole cloves in a shallow, wide pan.
Simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes.
Repeat later if needed.
Removing odors from your hands
For garlic, rub your fingers against a stainless-steel spoon or spatula under cold running water.
For fishy smells, wash your hands with lemon juice.
If desired, add fresh citrus peels or 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract to the simmering mix.
