how do u ger rid of onion or garlic smell from ur hands after using it in cooking?

Answer 1

I always use salt to get rid of onion & garlic smells. Makes your hands soft aswell, don't know how, but try it anyway.

Answer 2

Wash your hands w/ detergent, adn while still soapy, rub something stainless steel in your hands. This could be the sink fauct itself, a stainless cooking or eating utensil, or the side of a stainless pot. The SS in conjuction w/ the detergent neutralizes the smell.

Answer 3

rub salt and lemon juice on your hands. The salt ruffs up the skin cells to help remove the layer where the odor is "hiding" and the lemon juice does the rest.
Also try good old bleach and water.

Answer 4

Damp your hands and sprinkle on a little dry mustard powder, rub your hands together - smell all gone!
Very old-fashioned cure, but it really works - forget your stainless steel and lemon juice - try mustard!

Answer 5

for onions I rub celery but i've yet to find anything that works with garlic.

I wish they'd make a soap that gets rid of food smells from your hands, they'd make a fortune!
