How To Get Rid Of Lingering Food Smells

By Deborah Bennett February 10, 2010 8:30 am

I made the most amazing curry chicken dish two days ago, walked into my apartment tonight and guess what, the smell was still there.  Tasty as it was, I need the smell to be gone like yesterday.

When opening the window is not an option, here are a few ideas we rounded up from internet searches:

1) Simmer a pot of half vinegar and half water
2) Simmer a pot of water with lemon and orange peels
3) Leave a dish of vinegar out on the counter overnight
4) Aromatherapy candles or burning oils
5) Saturate cotton balls with vanilla extract and let sit in a dish overnight
6) Oust Sprays, which are said to eliminate odors instead of covering them up
7) The Odor Eliminator Candle, which is said to do the same

How to create a cheerful kitchen.

5 kitchen tasks we tend to forget.
