How To Get Rid Of Lingering Food Smells

By Deborah Bennett April 8, 2009 8:30 am

I made the most amazing curry chicken dish over the weekend, 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:

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

How to create a cheerful kitchen.

5 kitchen tasks we tend to forget.
