Have You Tried Acidity? Lemon juice works to remove onion smell due to its acid level. This is why vinegar is also a solution, as well as tomato juice, celery juice, mustard, and rubbing alcohol. Any of these can be put onto a wet towel, and used to scrub while you run water over your hands.

Fresh cut lemons or Orange juice should help to remove those odours.

Thanks for all these tips. I struggle to remove the smell too.

A little bit of salt made into a paste with water and rub into the skin.

i usually just use some lemon juice then wash with cold water and handsoap.

Tooth paste !

I’m constantly washing things so the smell doesn’t have a chance to stick to my fingers.

Lemon juice helps to remove the smell.

I’ve heard that rubbing your hands on stainless steel works.

I use fresh lemon or lime.

Lemon juice works for me. Or you could try wearing gloves when handling smelly food

I always use a hand wash straight away and it works!

I always use a teaspoon of sugar, and wash my hands with that, rub it in and it seems to absorb the smell, I was told this about 20 years ago and I have found it always works, someone else told me that cooking salt or table salt does the same thing, because it is abrasive and basically scrubs the smells off, I suppose it is taking a layer of skin off as well. LOL

Thanks for the answer ladies. You’re all a great help

Rub lemon slices for about 2 minutea

I haven’t tried the stainless bars before, I know lemon juice and cold water work for me though.

I wash my hands straight away after chopping garlic or onions and it seems to help a lot.

Wash your hands with cold water as warm water sets the smell. While washing your hands with cold water, rub them on your sink….same as stainless steel soap.

Thanks Ladies. I will have a look for the stainless steel soap bar. It’s such a smelly thing but without them in the meal. Just doesn’t taste quite right. Thanks again

I used a stainless steel stone best money I have ever spent.
