I keep a crock of cheap coffee by the sink and use it to dip some out to scrub my hands after cutting onions and garlic. It really works to eliminate the odors!

Oh, I love you for this tip. But no need to buy even cheap coffee, use your coffee grounds. I throw my coffee grounds into a crock along with kitchen veggie scraps & egg shells for my compost pile. I read your tip and remembered it today when I shelled my shrimp. Just grabbed some grounds (which happened to be on top) after I finished and voila! no more smelly hands. It really worked.

I do the same except I add some honey and a little vegetable oil to act as a exfoliant. It removes dead cells and rehydrates and smoothes my hands!

I do the same thing with table salt. I wet my hands, pour a mound of salt into my palms, scrub and rinse with tap water. removes even garlic smeels
