How Do I Get Rid of that Fried Smell after Cooking?

RE: How Do I Get Rid of that Fried Smell after Cooking? Post By Virginia (Guest Post) (04/22/2008) I heard about vinegar and I used it. Well, somtimes it seems to help, but sometimes it doesn't work as I can smell the cooking odors everywhere. Question: what kind of vinegar are you using? I saw a number of vinegars: distilled vinegar, apple vinegar, and even Concentrated vinegar (this is very strong). So, which one do you recommend, anyone?

This eliminates the cooking odor and also the vinegar smell. I tried it and it works like a charm. My friends tried it and they are thrilled too.

I also have an plug oil diffuser (Body Shop & usually Wild Oats) - if it's itense, I just put my oil of choice on the diffuser pad & plug it in...they are wonderful -- I dont like the sprays but have been using oils for years..cj in camas wa Report Spam or Abuse RE: How Do I Get Rid of that Fried Smell after Cooking?

(How do you like that for a run-on sentence?) The cinnamon makes your dwelling smell like potpourri. I am sure that other scents will work as well.

I am a school nurse and I know of many children who don't even know what a home cooked meal smells like. I have fond memories of my family that correlate with good food smells in the kitchen. I say "Kudos" to you and "Keep up the wonderful cooking smells!". Sincerely, Joni Report Spam or Abuse RE: How Do I Get Rid of that Fried Smell after Cooking?

Post By Sara (Guest Post) (07/19/2004) I bought a box fan for $10. I usually set it in the window turned the other way ie. the air blowing outwards from the window. Works beautifully like an exhaust.

Post By Becki in Indiana (Guest Post) (07/14/2004) Another way to deal with cooking odors is: saturate a cotton ball with vanilla extract. Set it, in a shallow container, in an out-of-the-way place -- on a window sill, on top of your cabinets (if they don't run clear to the ceiling), on top of the fridge, etc. I use an old jar lid as a container -- it's not meant to be decorative, just useful!

Post By Melissa R (Guest Post) (07/11/2004) Either boil lemon or orange peels or like Lee-Ann said...a small bowl of vinegar next to the stove while frying works great! You can also heat it in the microwave to get the icky smell out of the microwave oven... Report Spam or Abuse RE: How Do I Get Rid of that Fried Smell after Cooking?
